I had thoughts about skipping this ride due to a toothache that has
been one of the more painful experiences of my life including broken
bones and surgeries. Off to the endontist on Monday, I hope.
But, that's not the story here. I decided to ride.
I
had told my wife that I'd ride with her. Well, it wasn't 15 minutes
into the ride that I chased down some of the local race guys and
considered going for speed. NO, that is exactly what happened last
year so I let them go and went with plan A. Plan A was to ride with her
but go hard on some Strava segments to keep myself entertained.

My wife was a little skeptical at first that I'd be satisfied riding at her pace for 100 miles but I was determined to enjoy the ride and kick ass on some hills. Racing up ahead for some sections let me get some shots of her on the course. I'll let the pictures do most of the talking.

| Maybe I need to ride with a selfie stick, can you see the swollen jaw? |

| I seem to get a lot of pictures on green bridges. |

All and all it was a great day! Another good ride for Team Edwards. Which reminds me, there is less than 1 week to donate to the Cancer Community Center Ride and only 2 weeks to donate to The Dempsey Challeng. Both of us still need to raise a little more cash before the end of the week.
Please consider donating.
Awesome, love the pics!
