The first weekend in August I'll be riding the Courage Classic with my boyfriend, Shawn.  The Courage Classic bike ride is a 150 mile ride over 3 days and 3 mountain passes (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"&gt;Snoqualmie&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"&gt;Blewett &lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"&gt;&amp;amp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"&gt;Stevens&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"&gt;).  I am so excited about this challenge and know I have a long uphill road ahead.  I've purchased a bike and all the essentials (helmet, shoes, shorts, gloves, etc) and am on my way.  The good news that I've learned that I do in fact remember to ride a bike.  Now I 'just' need to get my tail in gear and start building some endurance.  I'm looking forward to the journey and sharing the ups and downs along the way.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5237082973310424040-3087579842911868100?l=3erink.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://3erink.blogspot.com/feeds/3087579842911868100/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://3erink.blogspot.com/2010/01/welcome.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5237082973310424040/posts/default/3087579842911868100'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5237082973310424040/posts/default/3087579842911868100'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://3erink.blogspot.com/2010/01/welcome.html' title='Welcome'/><author><name>Kat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04816291482626960022</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_JL4BCqANxZA/S281zu1IEBI/AAAAAAAAAAM/POlcM_igjXc/S220/kat1.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
