On June 4, 2006, Tommy (uncle to dos bebes), Water (uncle), Rachel (aunt), and I teamed up to ride 32 miles to support the Diabetes Foundation.
There was never a dull moment on this adventure around Manhattan, over the George Washington Bridge, and through parts of Northern New Jersey.
The 'Good Sport' award goes to Walter, whose tire busted at mile 4. The 'Persistence' award goes to Tommy, who wouldn't settle for anything less than the 32 mile ride. The 'Second Wind' award goes to Rachel, who kept Erika going with numerous bursts of energy. While we rode most of the way -- up and down the hills -- we did stop for photos on the George Washington Bridge.
How many times a year will we have that chance?!
At our celebration lunch, we decided we would do our best to make this an annual event. Dos Bebes and Elizabeth (dos bebes' cousin) might not be able to ride next year, but they will be great cheerleaders.
Please join Team Hartnett next year!
