Cycle For Independence 2007



My Wife and I rode in the Cycle for Independence this year. We rode the 25 mile route.

This is the first of four charity rides that we plan on doing this year. It may also be the shortest. The next one coming up is Bob LeBow where we will be riding the 35 mile route once again. Followed by the Tour De Boise(40 miles) and last but not least the Blues Cruise.

Each ride will be setting a new distance record for Amy since her accident. However she continues to get stronger and I think after Bob LeBow we'll see real progress since that was the ride she had her accident in last year.

Anyway, back to the Cycle for Independence. There was approximately 300 riders for the event and it seemed like the majority of riders had some sort of corporate sponsors.

It started out windy but not unbearable and it was an excellent way to really kick off cycling season.

That's awesome that you guys do that! I wish we had stuff like that here, and maybe we do, but you won't find me doing it when it's this stinkin' hot!!! :)
