Epilogue CycleQuest-Midamerica

The days following the end of the first CycleQuest ride went by like a whirlwind! Re-entry back into the "real world" is always tough after you complete a meaningful event like this.

This was a long bike ride and the lasting and memorable effects to me are the wonderful comments from a whole multitude of people about how this event touched their lives. Hearing this makes me happy; cycling has always been, for me, a way to express myself, and this message is dear to my heart. This ride was in the beginning, a very grass roots effort to get the word out about the subtle symptoms of ovarian cancer. As we made our way East the ride and message gained momentum and support.

I am thankful for my family, friends and all of the people along the way who supported the first CycleQuest. Please stay tuned...as there is more to follow!
