Double Century!

Today Austin and I blew away our old record of 152 miles by riding 200. 201.31 to be precise.

We had been wanting to ride 200 miles for awhile now, so yesterday we decided to try it today. With that goal in mind, we left the Wicks household at 6 this morning, right before sunrise, and we kept on riding until 10:00 tonight, a little after sunset. Fortunately, we reached our mileage goal without too much night riding. Now we're pretty tired.

Tomorrow we should have an easy ride into Columbia. We look forward to it.

You guys are AWESOME!!! I couldn't sleep and decided to get up and get on the computer. I am amazed and in awe of all that you all are accomplishing, just by riding your bikes! WOW! 200 miles in one day. You are really helping to raise awareness to so many other people about the need for childhood cancer research funding. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I can't wait to see you when this is all over, back in Atlanta. We love you all and are very proud!

Rally On!
