We were right here, on this side of the finish line waiting and watching and cheering for them all, and watching for Mike (My friend's brother) and Chris, among the 2,203 riders as they arrived from San Francisco. What a powerful day, as we celebrated with them and realized what an awesome extended family we have when we come together to do things.

After the ceremonies we went to Mike and Steve's and watched the slide show of pictures Mike took along the way. Where whole towns welcomed the Aids riders and had a BBQ for them on one, Ice Cream for all in another and then the shots we don;t get to see.

The tent city they slept in every night, the chow halls set up for their meals,
the porta potties set up at their overnight stops, and the medics with ace bandages, gauze and caring for those injured warriors. I am in awe, and inspired to give more, to care more, to do more. Because, I can.

LET'S GET IT ON AT SAN DIEGO PRIDE.
