El Tour De Tucson finished
November 23, 2007 – 8:22 pmI’m thrilled to have finished the ride. It was a truly inspiring time and the spectators really made it special. They were cheering us on and singling out the TNT riders for special attention.
My final time was 6 hours 51 minutes, which was slower than I was hoping for. I’m fairly sure I could have gone faster, but the rest of my team might argue otherwise.

Lisa did well, with a time of around 9 hours. We’re both hoping for faster times at Tahoe Century.
