Team Organ Re-Cyclers is a group of 8 riders and 12 crew members representing Team Donate Life. We are all racing in Race Across America (RAAM) in June 2011 from Oceanside, California to Annapolis, Maryland to spread the word of organ donation awareness.
Theres always a first time for everything. Like this, my first blog post. I can't believe this is happening, RAAM. It is less than a month away.
My fiance Rachelle and I watched Bicycle Dreams for the first time last week and it just fueled the fire even more. She's sad she can't go (as am I)and I am amped up to go. This is so surreal that this even happening. I have so many things going on in my head, I could write on this forever. There hasn't been a day that goes by that I am more and more excited to do this exciting crazy adventure. I keep asking people what this is going to be like and I get answers all over the board. I'm hoping this will be an adventure of a lifetime which I know it will be. I can't get this whole thing out of my head. It's all I think about. I just want it to be here already. I don't think I have ever been so all over board with anything in my life. All the miles, fundraising, talking to people, or anything can really get somebody ready for the things that might and will go wrong on this experience of a lifetime but it will make it that much better. I am glad I am on a team with the people I am. I couldn't be more ecstatic. Sure we have had our bumps in the road but we as a team will figure out a way to overcome it. I can't wait for this experience of a lifetime. I know I keep saying that but it's true. Just sitting here writing this I have a big smile/smirk on my face. Can't it just be here already? I am glad I have met the people I have while being on this team and in this organization. I just hope that I can do my load and sustain it through the entire race. Thanks again everyone.
