9. Suddenly you’re not worried about looking too old when you ask the hostess to sit in a padded booth at your post ride dinner.

8. Cars are honking their horns at you because they support what you’re riding for, not because they are angry over sharing the road with you.

7. You’re eating a PB&J at 8:30 a.m and calling it lunch.

6. Approximately 4,000 calories a day burned equates to a guilt-free case of beer.

5. Seeing a police officer at an intersection ahead makes your heart swell with gratitude instead of race with anxiety.

4. The tersest words spoken all day were over the lack of Ho-Ho’s at rest stops and ice cream in the VIP Lounge.

3. You almost forget that you are volunteering because the gray shirt volunteers treat you like royalty.

2. You’re not really bothered by the fact that you are paying $200 a night to stay in an economy hotel.


1. You know that you are going to hurt the next day, but it’s nothing compared to the pain that people with MS wake up with every morning. At least for two days, you get to make a difference for someone else.
