42 miler

So the kids and Tim have done this ride before! They wanted me to experience it! Oh Joy! Actually, I was kinda looking forward to it! Tim's mom was in town to watch the girls! We started at 0630. The first 17.5 miles was pure mountain bike trails! No pavement, no smooth path, at least 24 water crossings. I fell hard at the 5 mile marker and then game on! Total of 3 huge falls and so many bruises to prove it!
 I was just trying to stay as positive as possible but this was hard work! Thus i didn't take many pictures!

 This picture says it all! I think this was around the half way mark! We needed tons of encouragement.
 11 hours later we made it to our destination. Kaitlyn and Tim took uber back to pick up our car and then come get us! What a day! We were celebrating Tim for Dad's day! I can't believe the kids have done this twice now. It is intense!
