My first ride = Pink Ribbon

[Charlie41]

Hey everybody.....
So I attended the Pink Ribbon run today - my first ride.
It was a good ride; I had great company and perfect weather!!

The highlight of my day was of course riding over the Rimutakas!!
I've read a lot of scary stuff about it and was really not sure if I should go or not. I guess the biggest issue was my low speed around corners (I suck at twisties) and total lack of confidence. Anyway, I decided to go (after some motivation from others.....) and I MADE IT!!!!

If I pissed anyone off, well um, sorry!
Thanks to all the patient people out there
