Bike Relay




   This past weekend I had a great time.  After working on friday, we drove down to Memphis.  I joined other friends down there to do a 24 hour bike relay for St Jude.  Our team was the cyclepaths and we raised about 7500$ for St Jude.  We started riding at 6pm and continued until 6pm on Saturday.  I think everyone thought I was crazy to be excited about going.  We road on Riverside drive and pitched tents in Tom Lee park.  I slept under the stars like a baby.  I woke up Sat morning and enjoyed a yoga class overlooking the river.  The food was great as well as the weather.  I felt such a sense of peace and thankfulness to be there.  Memphis is really my home town although I have alot of mixed feelings about it. On Saturday I felt nothing but love for Memphis.   Family came out and offered support.  Our 8 member team got along great and enjoyed ourselves.  I'm still savoring the weekend.  We're already thinking of next year.
