Thanks Oren!
Many thanks Oren for putting up this very nice blogsite! From the beginning we agreed that we wanted to find a way to stay in touch with all of you who are supporting our efforts to raise funds for Kids First. Our hope is to provide you with updates on our training and then regularly post narratives and photos from Vietnam. We understand that web access is available even in rural VN!
So far the training has gone well; we're tackling an 85-miler this weekend. We had one eventful day a few weeks ago when I dropped out of the ride after shredding a tire and Oren fell a few miles further on after catching a tire in some railroad tracks. My tire is replaced and Oren has healed and we're pushing on...
Now, having said that, if anyone is interested in joining us some weekend for a ride we'd welcome you. As the days grow wetter and colder we could use some extra riders to huddle together with for warmth.
Thank you all for your tremendous response to our fundraising letter. We are very, very grateful for the generosity of our families and friends. We could not make this happen without you!
