Celebration of Successes

Our Weekend in Austin provided opportunity for some rest...some celebration....more eating...and yes....some more cycling (because we just didn't get enough the past 8 days!)....

Friday evening was the Welcome Reception:




We also had a chance to take in some Austin Food Trucks!







Saturday morning was a planned yoga with whoever was willing to wake up...this was my first ever...my new term for yoga is 'extreme stretching':




While shopping at Mellow Johnny's (a very unique bike shop owned by Lance Armstrong)...we bumped into Adrienne Arsenault from the CBC...who did an interview with some of us on our event and adventure. She wanted to know how the whole Lance thing affected us. We told her that it didn't...that LiveStrong has done some phenomenal things for people with cancer. Not sure if they actually aired any of the footage on TV though!




Saturday night...we continued the tradition of the Calgary folks...and transported everyone to the famous Salt Lick BBQ! Met, meat, and more meat!













And because its been a whole day since we last got on our bikes...Sunday morning, we participated in the LiveStrong Challenge - 105km bike ride with 4500 other cyclists:










At the finish line with another Wellspring Warrior, Diane:






And lastly...the least fun part of this adventure...packing up the bikes and gear for their safe transport home....

  1. Awesome journey, Billy. Thanks so much for everything you and the team did/do to support Wellspring and the battle against cancer. I can only imagine how tough it was to do all that riding and keep this blog updated too but I sure appreciated checking in regularly to see how y'all were making out.
