When I take some time off the bike for a number of days, especially before a big event, sometimes I wonder if I still even know how to ride.
I think some runners experience the same feeling before a marathon.
So I decided to go for a fast (for me) 100km today. I managed to ride 100km in 3:07, or 32km/hour average speed. For an old guy, I was pretty happy about that. Having this week off, going camping and catching up with our grand kids has been wonderful. Two more days and the real work begins again.

Arvid's Role
God has called me (Arvid) to be an ambassador for Mully Children's Family. I have chosen to use ultramarathon cycling as my platform from which to fulfill this calling. You can follow my ride, here, at www.grandpascan.com/ride. To read more about me and my story, click here.
I am asking you to help. I am trying to raise funds for the ongoing and capital expenses for the child mothers program at MCF. This program provides the critical life skills the young mothers need. To learn more about donating, click here.
