The Countdown Begins

Today, the 2015 Texas 4000 for Cancer team left for their journey to Alaska. Family, friends and supporters gathered and biked with the team during their first day. There was some great BBQ and music as the teams celebated their first ride and said goodbye to their loved ones.

As a volunteer for the event, I helped from the begining to the end of the ride. After the riders left the Austin area, I helped direct traffic about a half a mile from the finish line. I spent the majority of the day dancing in the street to entertain upcoming bikers, and I even got to explore part of the small town of Lampasas, TX.

It's hard to believe that in a year from now, I will be their shoes. I will no longer be directing bikers, but I will actually biking myself. It will be a long year of training, but I am sure that the 2016 team will be leaving before I know it!
