Good early morning! Are you awake yet or is my post up and running before you? 😀
I had to do this one early as I need to be at the starting line for the 150 mile bike ride for Camp Benedict by 6:30 am this morning. I am tired, but excited – and the excitement will soon surpass the tired. I am hopeful that the weather is kind to us, it looks like there is a chance of rain and possibly a thunderstorm today and a slight chance on Sunday as well.
The route is to go 75 miles today on the road designated for us, and then we will arrive at Camp Benedict. Camp Benedict is a camp that is for children with aids and their families. That is why I do this ride. We stay over night at the camp and on Sunday we bike the 75 miles back to Brainerd.
So – that’s what I am doing for the next 36 hours or so…. I have a post coming up later today that I have set and then I will be back later on Sunday to go up with the Monday What Are You Reading post. Pictures of the ride and details will be on the Tuesday post.
So I guess that is my weekend. I have had my coffee, I am packed and ready to RIDE! 😀
(Oh and my week results for the game on diet week 1 are up here.)



Hey!
I see you are an early riser too. It is 4.30 pm in my country. Best of luck with your bike ride!

Thanks Misha!
What a wonderful project to be involved in. I hope the weather’s kind to you and your seat comfy!
Hi Laura – thanks this cause is one that really is dear to me!
Oh, it sounds like fun (not! lol), but I’m sure you’re going to feel great afterwards. Once your muscles relax, that is.
Happy weekend!
LOL Laurel – the people you get to talk to are what make the ride so worth it.
You’re awesome! I hope the ride goes well
Thank you Helen! 😀
Good luck and have fun!!
Thanks Jill!
Go, Sheila, go! You rock!
Thanks Julie!
Sheila enjoy the ride and stay safe.
Thanks Esme – I will.
Best of luck on the ride. Great cause. I hope the weather is good to you.
Thanks Pat – the weather did cooperate for the most part – a bit of rain for about 20 minutes at one point but other than that sunny. Today – hot.
I hope it doesn’t rain or storm on you!
I have an award for you HERE
Hi Vicki – thanks!
Roll on Sheila! Have a great time. Cute picture! 🙂
I’d say good luck, but since I’m late reading this, it wouldn’t help much. Looking forward to reading how it went.
