Pics of Katy

This is how it all started, I have friends that are supportive and friends that are competitive. At times I would think why can't we just do these events for fun? It was never like that with this group of gals, especially for Subrina. But the day we found out that Katy was diagnosed with Ovarian cancer we all became the supportive kind. It was a blow to us, we thought no way this could be happening. It's something we hear about, not live through. It's been a year and a half since Katy's diagnosis and we're left with her memories. But I know one thing Katy would be proud of, and that's the fact that we've all stayed friends and have made new ones along the way. Our mission is simple, it's to help spread awareness for early detection of Ovarian cancer. All of our friends will be doing events, runs, cycling, wine tasting, beerfests (hey competition is competition!) and along the way we'll be spreading the word.Stay tuned for what stories we learn along the way! Katy was an amazing, inspiring person who truely lived life to the fullest. We love and miss you much.

Yay I get to ride again.. no rain! Don't be fooled by the sun rays behind my head because today was very cold. For me wearing so many layers is an anomoly. I don't like to be hot when I ride, or run, or at anytime really, unless I can get into my bathing suit and drink skip and go nakeds! (more about skippies later)

We're training for a ride in Moab, Utah in March(http://www.skinnytirefestival.com) , that will raise money for the Livestrong foundation which was one of Katy's favorite charities(livestrong.com). Okay so.. tights check, arm warmers check, under shirt check, full fingered gloves check, cold weather check (well so cal cold), WHAT the heck am I going to do in Moab? I was wearing my "warm" clothes and was absolutely freezing today. Good thing I have a month to figure it out. =)

More to come...
