I thought to myself, that is silly- this road is not that long. Then he said, I road back and forth nine times for a ride called 100 Mile to No Where. So you have fans everywhere! Happy Sunday!

So, at Christmas time we make a donation to WBR or some other worthy cause instead of buying gifts (except for the grandkids). The donation goes in the family name and everyone gets a nice card from us telling them what we have done. It's a win-win way to use our money, and everyone feels really good about it.

Shut up. Just shut up. You had me at pie. You had me at pie. I think maybe, just maybe, 2014 will be the year I ride Davis, rather than just send money to Davis.
