Another Reason to Ride

For our non-Facebook friends who didn't get to see this post...this is why we do what we do.  Some things just don't need any more explanation than this.  Thanks Chris.

What were you doing at 2:00 am this morning? I'm sure some of you were awake with me but I was up rescuing one twin from a low blood sugar, hollering at him to drink his orange juice while his brother (also low) told me I didn't have to yell. 

It sounds terrible but my wife and I know that's what it takes to keep him coherent long enough to get his blood sugar back up to a functional level. Quality time in our house is often spent in the middle of the night munching a snack and sharing a milk defeating another low blood sugar that is trying to take my boys down! 

I am riding 100 miles to help raise money for the American Diabetes Association.  

It's pronounced Di uh bee Tees...not Di uh Bee Tuhs because it will never... Beat Us!
