A Century Ride: The Queen Cemetery

At Mile 61 on the Tony Serrano Century ride, I squealed to a stop… Was it real? This place? The Queen Cemetery. A real place… not just a place in my cycling mind!  Because, well, the Queen felt as if she needed to be put to rest after 61, 81, and 100 miles… WHEW! …Still… […]

100 Miles and a Prayer (and a Gross Picture)

Tomorrow I’m riding in my first CENTURY ride with my dear triathlon pal, Yoda.   (That’s 100 miles, people… just in case you weren’t paying attention.  Oh lawd.)

Love, Marriage and Old Shoes

Happy 35th anniversary to my Mom and Dad! My dad had the sweetest status update on Facebook for my mom.  I wanted to share it, because it really moved me. I hope he doesn’t mind. And really, does a wedding picture get any better than this? For those of us who are in the loving […]

The Silver Comet Curse

Yesterday, I conquered the biggest ride of my life —- 85 miles at Silk Sheets. I went with my tri pal, Yoda, and we had a great day.  The morning started out freeeeeezing—-and neither she nor I wore the right gear. It was 52 degrees in Atlanta; but at Silk Sheets…. it was 38 and […]

Back to LIFE, back to reality

Yesterday I returned from a 5 day cruise with the family. This was the first cruise we have ever taken with out kids. My hubby and I have taken a few together, but we’ve always gone solo. So…last year we took a cruise out of Charleston, SC (only 2 hours from home), and decided to […]
