AIDS LifeCycle 2012 - Finish Line!

I made it! So we are 660.2 miles complete on this journey. In mid-August, I'll be back on the AIDS vaccine track with a ride from Burlington, VT to Portland, Maine. This has been an important week in many ways and if you're willing to keep tracking, I'll keep sharing. For tonight, I am simply thankful for good health and will never take this for granted again. I'm also thankful for electricity that refuels my crackberry and a nice soft bed with no spiders and a ceiling that doesn't puff up with every wind. I missed my Saint Mark Cycling friends terribly on the long roads but training with them really got me through these miles. I am thankful for your prayers of safety as not everyone on the ride survived without a broken bone or two. I'm just tired but will bounce back quickly, I'm sure. It will be nice not to sit on a saddle for a few days!

Our work is not done - we are just getting cranked up. But together, we will make a difference.

When I get home, I'll start sharing some of these experiences with hopes they keep us moving for the people who are counting on us. Every day was special as I was able to reflect on the stories you have shared. For those special lives, we can't stop now!!
Peace and thanks to all!
