Sorry, I should have been clearer. There is NO WAY, even if I had the new bike (and yes, I'm injured) that either of us are up to the metric century yet. I could do it if it were flat, but I'm still working the chemo out and my climbing suck. OK, I'm not sure my climbing has anything to do with my chemo, but I paid for the chemo, I'm going to get the most mileage out of it that I can! We're thinking 2013, and with both rides so close together on the calendar, she get's to pick.

ALS is near and dear to my heart. I just lost one friend to it and have another who is losing his battle to it one day at a time. It is a nasty disease and I would like to do my part to help.

I'd also like to find a cancer ride in the SoCal/Central Cal area. Obviously, that one means a lot to me, too!
