Katy Trail Ride Report
Submitted by Brent Hugh on Tue, 12/09/2003 - 4:05pm
Maddie Earnest wrote a wonderfully detailed report of her Katy Trail ride for The Commonspace:
I'm sorry to say that it was my competitive streak that had reacquainted me with my bike in the summer of 2000. Jason was gathering together a team of folks to ride the MS 150 bike ride. I did not believe myself interested or able to ride 150 miles in two days. However, as Jason began assembling the team I found myself incredulously asking Jason, "You mean she's doing it? . . . if she can do it, I can do it." I think you get the picture. I found myself surrendering lazy Sunday mornings for the purpose of whipping my body into shape for the ride. It worked, and I rode the 150 in both 2000 and 2001.
