Mtn Biking with Joe!



Its been a day. Started off with a 5:30am drive to NIST in Gaithersburg, where I spent the entire day in the cleanroom, finally leaving around 4PM. That is when it got fun, headed on down to Cedarville to meet Joe again. We decided to try out the Orange loop, a nice easy loop, with lots of deep sand, but is about 6-6.5 miles long, before popping onto the Blue for a short but fast and a bit more technical ~4 mile ride. Got in 11.7 miles all together, quite a nice ride, avg about 10.3 mph. Afterwards, headed over for a pizza, wings and beer at Boston's before heading home. Great ride, great company, great fun.

2010 Efforts!

This year, like last year, I will be riding for Mary Payton's Miracle - My friend Steve Kogos from Trigators informed me that his friend Joe's daughter, Mary Payton, was diagnosed a number of years back with Late Infantile Batten Disease. This is a disease with no cure, however, there are special experimental (and extremely expensive) treatments which have shown some significant signs of success! In order to assist with the costly treatments and research, Mary Payton's Miracle was created to raise money to find a cure, hopefully in time to save little Mary Payton as well as the many others affected by this terrible disease!
