Our mighty cyclist and her 2149 compatriots pedaled 99 miles today to Paso Robles. Apparently there was a friendly little hill known as Quadbuster along the way. Kristy's comment - "kicked Quadbuster's ass!" That's our girl, huh?
From the Daily Spin (the ride newsletter released daily, duh) it looks like there is some entertainment each night at camp. I'm sure Kristy will bring us some great stories from those experiences. The Spin also lists the menu for each day - hopelessly devoid of whipped cream!
The messages from Kristy just keep getting more animated and joyful. Apparently 280 miles of cycling is not tiring her out with everything else she's taking in. Today's message, straight from her:
"Just finished Day 3 (about 3 pm). Kicked Quadbuster's ass but was a tough hill. Had some sprinkles (from the sky, I assume). Watched a drag show at rest stop 4. Doing great. Having a blast. This is such an amazing event. A lady that yelled from her car, thanks for riding, my Mom died from AIDS. I guess I am making a difference. XO - Kristy"
'Nough said, eh?
