ReplyDeleteHey, Steve! I was already a fan of Ryders on FB and following them on twitter! But I posted my status and tweeted my love! Also, it's officially my 29th birthday and I'm not above trying to use this as a reason for another entry! At the very least, you should feel indignation for me as just yesterday my 91 year old grandmother told me that if I spent half as much time trying to find a man as I did training I'd have been married years ago!
ReplyDeleteSo three entries if you hate birthdays, four if you pity this poor, spinster triathlete!
-Beki!
Moving to Minneapolis next month -- I'm a bike commuter and I'm training for my first half marathon this summer! I need these cool shades!
