The ride was June 9 & 10. What an amazing journey!!! 4,852 people helped raise $18.1 for cancer research. On Saturday we rode through rain most of the day. But it didn't dampen the spirits of the riders. The rain cleared up late in the afternoon. The evening at the camp in Hamilton was a beautiful summer evening.
Sunday was hot and sunny all day. We rode through farm country and villages to Niagara Falls. It was wonderful seeing all the people along the way standing beside the road with signs of support cheering us on.
And at the end there were hundreds, maybe thousands, of people to see us cross the finish line.
I can't say enough about the support we received for the weekend. All the volunteers and crew were terrific. The police and motorcycle club members that blocked traffic and provided directions. The people who manned the pit stops to provide Gatorade, fruit, energy bars etc to keep our bodies fueled.
I was very proud to be able to help raise much needed funds for cancer research.
