Thanks. And I appreciate you stating that as "WHEN" I beat this. I can't tell you how many people feel the need to encourage me by telling me all their stories of those who have not!

Once I'm cancer free, I'll be buying a used bike while I pay for the cancer, THEN I'll reward myself with a nice new bike! However, chemo is running through March of 2012 at this point. When the time comes, though, I'll most definitely talk to your friends in Culver City again!

And, once I'm back in the saddle, let's meet up at the Rose Bowl and let that day laborer pass us both up. I know that guy. Used to pass me ALL THE TIME!
