If you’d like to be involved in the Team Fatty effort, you can read more about the official start of the team in the FatCyclist post for today. In addition to helping support the cause, there are prizes to be won, and more that can be done beyond just signing up to ride and raise support. I’m just waiting to hear back on some scheduling information before I select which city I’ll be riding in. No Livestrong in Portland, so Seattle or San Jose seem like the next best two options. If I can’t arrange to ride with Elden’s group (wherever that may be,) perhaps I’ll be able to link up with Keijro in California and avoid the monsoon we both endured in 2007!

Now, if you'd just buzz cut the sides of your head and leave a couple of "Elvis" locks to hang down, you'll look like a teenager again. Congratulations on reaching your goal!

Seriously… that’s a huge accomplishment. Look back 1 year ago, and imagine if someone told you that you’d ride for 70 miles on a bike, in the rain…

To go 20 miles longer than you've ever ridden before in that aweful weather is simply amazing...you rock.<br/><br/>Oh, and I totally felt your pain about finding your car after the ride...I had to do quite a bit of riding around the parking lot too to locate my rental.<br/><br/>Here's to more sunny day for 2008 Challenge!<br/><br/>p.s. My Garmin is reading only 1,000 ft of climbing...are you sure we rode the same course? =) Awesome job Paul — way to gut it out! To go 20 miles longer than you’ve ever ridden before in that aweful weather is simply amazing…you rock.

Oh, and I totally felt your pain about finding your car after the ride…I had to do quite a bit of riding around the parking lot too to locate my rental.

Here’s to more sunny day for 2008 Challenge!

p.s. My Garmin is reading only 1,000 ft of climbing…are you sure we rode the same course? =)

The pics of you and your family in the rain are too cute. The ride must have been a nice break from all the golf :) Good Job Paul! The pics of you and your family in the rain are too cute.

You are seriously the man. I have always looked up to you in every other way and now you've conquered the cycling world too. My hero. Do you remember when we started talking about doing a ride we were going to just do the 26 mile reach the beach route. Im so proud of you- for your first season of cycling, you really represented for the homies. I dont know what that means. You've entered into an elite brotherhood of a few folks who get to correct people when they tell them about the ride the finished "...no, <b>70, </b> not 17"<br/><br/>Wish i could have been there with you, sounds like it was a blast.
