Street Graffiti: A cyclist interpretation

Today Ralph, I and 2 other people marked the route for a local tour here.  The tour is 25 or 50 miles long and set up for all levels of biker, we did the 50 miles route.   It is a fund raiser for the Tourette Syndrome Association of Greater New York State, on September 23rd, 2012.  Our ride today was fun for sure and a chance to get out.  And I'm thrilled to say I beat my time speed record!!!!!  46.6 mph!!!  NICE!!!! and it was fun!!!! Ralph talked me thru the start of the descent, strategizing where I would hit the turns, where I would push it... and what to watch for... etc.  And it worked as he took off and I followed in pursuit!!!  Yeash that one is going to be hard to beat :/.  The ride took a bit longer as we alternated stopping along the way to re-mark the route at all the turns.   Just about 4 hours 50miles with stops along the way.   Last year Ralph added a few phrases along the way. Gotta love him!!!!  A little inspiration along the way I call it; 

Life is a journey
Enjoy the ride

I smile every time I ride by....
