The reality of trying to fit in bike ride every single day with a full life of kids, a big dog, and a business had Garrett and I pulling out the trailer this evening after dinner, before bed. I love sharing this adventure with my family, so it was a perfect way to charge on Day 2! We turned the mission into an errand and headed to the Coop downtown Arcata for some butter. Exactly 1 mile!
Initially this blog chronicled my family's cycle/RV adventure to my May 21st chemotherapy appointment over 300 miles away.
The intention of the ride was to benefit my well-being after my mastectomy and before chemotherapy and radiation, spread cancer awareness, and raise money for two incredible programs that have inspired and cared for me during my bout with breast cancer...read more about them on the purpose page.
Despite the dis-ease that I am experiencing, I choose to live fully and in deep appreciation for simply being alive. I am dedicated to exercising, eating healthy every day -- two ways within my power toward healing.
Nicole, I would love to ride with you. My days are busy too, but I would love to share some time with you. Any time you would like a companion, let me know. Big love to all of you, Kate
Look at those little darlins’! So cute and cosy. Thank you Nicole.
We love the trailer-trip! Those adorable children look pretty cozy in there – this could become a nightly activity. How wonderful to have the whole family doing some of the rides – carry on! Loads of love to you, from Mary and Sherif.
reminds me of the sesame street short from the 70s where the girl goes to the store for “a loaf of bread, a container of milk, and a stick of butter.”
love your bike flag! ♥
