Just days after Shane got his new road bike for his birthday in August, he and my brother Jacob signed up for a 100 mile bike ride in Hillsboro. Shane had already been biking to and from work most days of the week since June, so he just had to add the longer training rides on Saturdays. His longest training ride was 67 miles, so the 100-mile ride was still quite a bit longer.
There were several rest stops along the way, so we waited at one of the rest stops at mile 82 to see them ride in and to cheer them on.
The kids waiting for their dads to arrive.
They looked pretty good for already riding for almost 5 hours!
Their total ride took them just under 6 hours. I thought that was pretty impressive for their first time! And most impressive of all, they didn’t even come home and collapse, but instead went with Stacey and me and the kids to the pumpkin patch.
