We are so blessed that we get to ride almost every day! Living the dream this summer with a great group of folks who are willing to change the world with their efforts and generosity. What more could a person ask for?
This is such a wonderful synergy that everyone has a very positive attitude even when things prove very difficult. It’s not often in life that you get to experience such instant friendships and connections. Trust is high, and everyone is contributing the best to make this the most awesome trip ever.
When you think of Missouri, perhaps you making the same mistake that I did, that this is easy strolling over rolling hills. Bad call. These are very challenging hills that stress you out plenty. I can truthfully say that for the first time since this trip began three weeks ago, my legs are sore from strolling over these rolling hills! Don’t underestimate the difficulty!
Having said that, we are encouraging one another throughout the ride and laughing at each other’s antics. I was entertaining Mo yesterday with mishaps that happened to me while living the the former Soviet Union. He needed that distraction because his knee is hurting and he is trying to press on and finish the ride. We help each other like this over and over again.
