MS Bike Tour 2009

Eeeek...look how white my arms and legs are!! And I do have a bike tan!! I may have to reconsider my anti-tanning stance...

An emotional day for me today. I bike the MS Bike Tour up at Waskesiu. And it was fun at the same time! My team "Back of the Bus" raised OVER $10,000!

This is what I am wearing next year.

The Superhero team...not sure which super hero this guy is but I wish I would have known and I would have worn my WonderWoman costume.

A two seater. Notice the hydration on this bike. Gotta love events sponsored by beer companies!!


I wanted to steal this.


We had these signs tied to the back of our bikes. The red lights really worked and flashed!


Welcome to Northern Saskatchewan


You don't see this at a triathlon. And they were packing "the heat" too! Maybe they thought they were going to see a bear?


Everyone stopped at half way and here was our lunch...


Another Northern Sask shot...


This was the last rest stop...that's me and a bit of time with a Kayak...
