My #1

Travis has taken interest in bike riding. His best friend Jacob encouraged him to start riding and now they ride as often as their schedules and weather allow. Before Asher was born, Travis had asked me about riding the Tour de Cure which is a fundraising race benefitting the fight against diabetes. Travis has been fighting type 1 diabetes since he was 15, so this was very personal to him. He'd wanted to do for a long time, but with the arrival of Asher just last week, we didn't know if it would really be feasible. After settling in a bit, we decided we could all handle it. So Thursday night, he and Jacob signed up and began their fundraising efforts. In just two days, they raised over $1000 together AND they came in FIRST in their division (50k)!

One "benefit" to being a diabetic-- you get a cool red jersey when you ride. Here's my #1 after the race (check out those awesome shorts!).

Always trying to be like Daddy, Pax wanted to put on his red shirt and ride his bike, too!
