Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!   I don't think we are ridding much these days... at least I know that my miles are down.  It is Thanksgiving!  I hope everybody has had a wonderful day - ready to burn some calories in the next few weeks!

I would like to take a moment, wax poetical - mention what I am thankful for today.

It has been a very dynamic year for me.  Many things have happened and changed.  I am grateful for these changes.  But first of all, I am always most grateful for the health and good well being of my son, Jon Boy. He is well these days, and for that I am grateful. He will be marching in a Drum and Bugle Core next summer; reaching and attaining his drumming dreams.

I am thankful for all of the absolutely wonderful friends I have made this year and all of the new people I have met this year through cycling. I have many new and very dear friends. I am sometimes astonished at how wonderful our athletic and cycling community is here in Somerset. I think we are all blessed by each other. I know that I am blessed by each and everyone of you; whether you and I have driven to races together, raced in races together, ridden together, or have simply seen each other on our bikes.... Thank you all for giving me such a wonderful first year back on my bike.

Over the past year I also was reacquainted with a very old sweat heart and I am very grateful to have Debbie and her kids in my life. They are so wonderful to me.

I am thankful to God for my health and I am grateful to Him for my ability to reach a higher level of fitness.

I am grateful to my dad who has helped me so much over the past year, getting back into road racing.

I am grateful for Marc Travis and Cumberland Cycles who allowed me to high jack their bike club without too much difficulty!!!!

I am grateful that Thanksgiving is now almost over and it is officially time to start training for next year!!!!!!
