The Annual Bike Ride

Every year our church has a Bike Ride. Everyone meets in Tallahassee to ride the 16 mile St Marks Trail. Lij and Ike rode in the bike trailer for the first eight miles and then they opted to stay with me. I drove the Support Vehicle ;-). Every three or four miles I found a place to park and watch the bikers. This was MaryVance's first time to attempt the entire 16 miles (on her bike with training wheels!) and I wanted to be near by if she pooped out.

Here's a shot of Lij and Ike while we were waiting for the bikers. Little boys. Rocks. Rocks must be conquered!




Oh! Look! Here they come!!! woohoo!!! I think this is around the 13 mile mark...Big Daddy in the lead with Mare, Sam and Luke following close behind. The man in blue is our friend John!
Biker Daddy... with the snack of champions... a banana, Gatorade and Slim Jim! Potassium, Protein and Electrolytes.... yummm....


And MaryVance Made It! She biked the entire 16 miles!!! Woohoo!!! Go Mare!!!


We all meet at the end of the trail for a picnic lunch.

Yapping? Me?! Gasp! Enjoying the afternoon with the RONU... Brandy and Serena!


And a final shot... one of my favorite little people in the world! Sweet Leah!! She was cooing at me... she *hearts* me! I think I'm gonna teach her to call me 'Dearly'... isn't that sweet :-)
