The morning of the PMC. Pam and I waited at that hotel for the bus to take us to the start. Yes, it was about 4:30AM!

Eric is a member of our local riding group - Westford Wheelers. This is his very first PMC!
He rode in memory of a friend.
This is just a sample of what it looks like at the start. A couple of the Westford Wheelers who I ride with are in this photo.
I wore white beads in memory of some very special people and pink beads for some folks who are winning the cancer fight!
The team that Pam and I are on, Team Dassult, provided us with helmet toppers so that the team cheering squad knows who we are. With most of the shirts the same, it's hard to spot people.
Here is Jocelyn who has done the ride with me for several years. This year she opted to run the Boston Marathon with the Dana Farber group!
Yes... this is what happens before the ride... !
State Police Team!

So, at the 85th mile, when I was ready to collapse, there was my Pedal Partner, Stephanie. She is 13 now, and she told me when she turns 15, she's joining my team and doing the PMC. How much could I think about being tired then!

The final few feet into Provincetown, YAHOO! Great ride! Thanks to all for supporting me!
