G-O-A-L!!!

Reached my minimum goal. Thanks to a donation from Melissa Gold (via Israel) that got me to $1001. I'm still fundraising; last year I clearly was able to raise a bit more.

This Wednesday I took a 'personal day' as I was going to hang with Simon later in the day and then head to a METS game with him. Biked 20 miles in the morning in Central Park. The atmosphere was totally different during a regular day. I love how Central Park takes on different energies on different days/times.

Hoping for another long ride Sunday--we'll see if the weather holds up.

Thanks again to everyone who supported me thus far!

Beer and Cycling? :-)

Went to Yeungling Brewery with my cousins, sibs and a few others this weekend! Was great. This bicycling jersey was in the store. THE LAST ONE! I had to talk about it here.

Sandy Hook Ride: Total 56 MILES!

What a day! 99 degrees didn't stop us. Naomi, Batsheva & I started by biking down to Penn Station and taking the train out to Hazlet station. Accessing the Henry Hudson Trail early was beautiful! I didn't know how beautiful it was -- hoping to do more of it in Monmouth County when I get a chance. Our whole route can been seen here. (The extra mileage was us veering a bit off-course exploring more of Sandy Hook and our to and from UWS to Penn Station mileage. The Sandy hook stretch was gorgeous--beautiful breezes and a lot of shaded spots. Luckily the LISCH house was mile 40! How crazy right!? Nice jump into the pool, snacks, and air conditioning. Thanks, Mom & Dad! Then we were off for the last three miles. We had to STAND the whole way back to NYC. The train was super crowded from holiday weekend shore goers and we later found out if the conductor saw us we would not have been allowed on! What a fabulous day! It was so nice to be doing a ride in the 'country' and our adventure was well worth it.

Thx to Jeremy - for my MLS parting gift Women's Jersey. Kept me cool and didn't absorb the suns rays :-) My new favorite biking top.

Thank you to everyone's support so far!
