Can’t get enough Booty? Here’s the video and more…

img_3873.JPG24 Hours of Booty… I know it seems like my posts are going on and on for what was a 24 Hour event. But… you’ll have img_3896.JPGto bare with me because this means so much to me, my family and friends. So, I edited some video snippets into one little movie (below). But before you watch I wanted to give a shout out to Fatty at Fat Cyclist to show him Susan was represented. I found this dashing cyclist sporting the “Win Susan” Fatty jersey and socks! Susan was also on one of my jersey ribbons. Thanks for your support Fatty! And thanks again to everyone else!

Here’s the video:

    DJ- Great video! I’m so glad to get to feel a part of the ride. I got calls all weekend from our friends who asked you to ride for someone they loved. They were so moved to know their loved ones, whose names were on your back, were being “represented”. And they were all thrilled to know you hit your goal of 200 miles. Troupe and Mac and I are VERY proud of your strength and your compassion for others.
    Congrats to you, Brian and Team “Do it for Aaron”!
    xoxo Your loving family,
    Jan, Troupe & Mac

    LAUREL — Thanks so much Lily… It really was such a high! Talk about getting the adrenaline and endorphins going. The energy from all the other cyclists around you and the combined mission to pedal hard for loved ones. It is the best!

    WILL — Thanks buddy! Yeah… I was “a little” tired. :) But each time I thought about something like that I pushed on because this cause is so much bigger than being tired or sore. Talk about motivation!

    Donald - cool video. You can tell you know what you are doing. You don’t want to see my videos.

    Thanks for putting together this video. It really conveys what you achieved and why you are doing it. Great job.

    GROOVER– Thanks so much! Yeah… if my parents had been there it would have been sappy… probably would have had some tears. They were certainly with me though in thought and I called them many times with updates! They were so excited and proud. But I see it the other way… I can’t express how proud I am of them for their fight and staying so strong!

    What you did was nothing short of amazing. Thank you for sharing the video, and going the distance for those that need the help.
    I hope that next year I’ll be able to ride with you and the others during this great event.

    IAN– Thank you… That would be great… come on down next year!
