This year is going to be better than ever! I feel stronger and more determined to place in the top 10. Last year I was riding with a 101 degree temperature. You might say I was a little sick. However, I completed eight laps. Not bad for a sniffling, gooey, sneezing, coughing, stuffy-head 24-hour solo rider. This ride is also important to me as I feel it is a journey in to the mind. I pulled strength from some cavernous portion of my spirit last year. If I can do the same thing, with a clear head, then I’ll certainly do better!  

I look forward to the riding!
