In the summer of 2011 Deb covered ~370 miles of the TransAmerica Bicycle Route 76 in the RideForJim event in honor of her dad, Jim Young. Dad has been fighting Stage IV lung cancer since April 2010. The RideForJim event raises money for cancer research.

Half Loaded
It seemed like a fun idea to ride our touring bikes from home to the Beaverdam Fourth of July parade. My enthusiasm waned about 6 miles into the 36 mile ride. I swear that bike half loaded with my camping gear weighed as much as I do :(. Fortunately, I changed my mental attitude at mile 18 when we stopped to watch the parade. This picture was taken at Squashapenny, in Doswell, VA, about 4 miles from home. That's why I'm celebrating!
