Fanatical

"... It's overcast, a slight drizzle in the air, a glimmer of hope in everyone's eyes. Hope because with every push of the peddle, every strained muscle used to propel forward, hope moves forward. Many of the cyclists have a very personal connection to ALS, having lost a loved one, or currently having a loved one battling. You hear it in the conversations and the countless reunions taking place among the veterans of the trek. The energy building as the cyclists gather behind the starting line. Three, Two, One! Off they go. Dozens of cyclists traversing across three states. Unimaginable to this Texas boy, 100 miles only gets you to the next major city in Texas. But I digress."
