The MS bike ride was fantastic! With my great friends from The Valley Regional Fire Authority we rode the crazy mileage without a hitch. Each day was great to be on a bike. Saturday was especially sunny and warm as we traveled through the hills of Fidalgo and Whidbey Islands and when we finally arrived at the finish line we couldn’t have been happier!
Sunday was more relaxed. With a sprinkling of rain in the morning and clouds looming, we took our time as we made our way through the Skagit Valley. At the end of the ride we were relieved to not be sitting on small bike seats and found a great spot for cheeseburgers.
Nancy and I are grateful for the amazing support, thank you! Your care truly makes a huge impact in our lives and the lives of others living with MS.
