On Sunday I was able to help out the local MS society by taking pictures of the MS Challenge Walk down in Gaffney, SC. It was an amazing experience to watch all of the family members and volunteers who make this event possible. I just wanted to thank everyone that took part in this event and I want to thank Jeff for asking me to help out.

I’ve recently purchased a Cannondale Capo SS/FG. I have only logged about 10 miles on it, between riding down to the pool and riding to the neighbors house, but even with so few miles I have to admit that I love this bike. I opted for the black frame with the graffiti writing it, and I am extremely happy with my choice. The gearing is 48-17 and it is fine for now, but I might change it out once I start riding it on the road more. All and all, it is a great bike for the price and I will be sure to write a longer review once I have had the opportunity to ride for a longer distance.

Now mind you my entry won’t be nearly as lengthy as my fathers recap, but I will try my hardest to give you accurate details.

We managed to get to the start of the ride with about 10 minutes to spare, which was amazing because I got out of bed only 15 minutes before that. As the time was clicking away, I observed that it probably wasn’t my brightest idea to drink coffee before the ride. I was already getting cramps in my stomach and we haven’t even started yet. Once we got on the bike and started though, the pain slowly but surely dissipated.

Ever had a car zip right past you while you were out on a Sunday morning ride? I think almost all of us have. It seems that some people are just hateful towards anything that is on the road and isn’t a car. It is people like this that you have to watch out for.
