this years ride was completely opposite of last year except the incredible feeling of helping to raise money for the brain tumor society.  it poured rain and we brought little drew on a child seat on the back of my bike.  it was tough riding a mountain bike 25 miles with a 30lb weight on the back....and we pushed it, finishing in 1 1/2 hours.

BUT, we were thrilled to ride for Nathan and have drew along with us for added support.  thanks to all the donors, all the volunteers and the COPS.  I can't imagine i'm saying this but the police were a huge help.  the waltham, lincoln, weston and concord police were super!  they gave us the right of way (granted it was early sunday morning) at almost every intersection
