| Page Views: 93 Last Visit to California: June, 2005 | CA. AIDS LIFECYCLE- 7 days: 585 miles- 2000 people by WarehouseMary - last update: Apr 28, 2006 |
It WAS A WEEK WHEN . . .
• Everyone was kind.
• Our bodies worked harder than ever before with power and strength we didn't know we had.
• The beauty of California's ocean, mountains, vineyards, farms, and generous citizens touched us profoundly.
• A moving city of over two thousand riders and crew became family who watched out for each other.
• We shared daily laughter and tears with many whose names we never learned.
• We could eat anything we wanted, however much we wanted, without guilt, only worrying if we had eaten enough.
• We were grateful for the privilege & ability to participate in such an important event.
• Most of us rode every mile and all of us rode every mile we could.
• We were filled with a deep sense of satisfaction in knowing that as a result of this ride many with HIV/AIDS will receive medicine, food, and perhaps an extended life.
**It was also a week that could not have happened had it not been for the support and donations from wonderful family and friends.
