Big NSV #2
Today I did bike ride #2 with the Tour De Force. It was the Chris Surrency Memorial Ride and I completed the course of 37.5 miles in 3 hours!!! Only one minor incident though
I got "bumped" by a car, fell off my bike and got some nice road rash on my right knee
It's alittle swollen and bruised, but I'm just so proud of myself for finishing the ride
and making such a good time. I'm so happy I took up bike riding
I HIGHLY recommend it

Sounds like a great ride in support of a great cause. That is lousy about the car "bumping" you, I really wish cars had more respect for the bicyclists on the road. We might see more people riding if that was the case. Congrats on getting back on your bike and finishing the ride. Take care of your knee - icing it would be great. Mary
