My Encounter with 26 Super Heros
Oh man, am I sore today! Yesterday I took Emily and eleven other cyclists on the quintessential hike up to Cascade Pass and Sahale Arm. This trail gains around 3,000 ft in 5 miles, with the last mile a thigh-burning 800-ft rock scramble. Even though these kids claim that they were using "different muscles" than cycling, they still took it at an impressive pace; like jogging down the last 3.5 miles in 45 minutes. I kept up well enough, but going down stairs today takes a bit more time than usual.
Basically, these kids are amazing. Imagine 26 of the most energetic, enthusiastic, adventurous friends on 9 week trip that's a mix between summer camp, a high school sports team, and a service project. Perhaps I caught them on a good day (it was their day off after all), but it community and laughter that I witnessed was unbelievable and infectious. As we were knocking back beer and sharing our most embarrassing stories, relaxing on the dock while the sun set...as I marveled at the amount of food they consumed after our hike (16 oz burgers, plus fries, plus onion rings, plus a fudge milk shake)...as I laughed until my cheeks hurt from smiling, I thought, wow, I'd love to do this. But then I realized that the attraction was not for the biking aspect of the trip (obviously), but for the camaraderie. Hmmm, I wonder if I can plan something of this cross-country magnitude for my art friends... "Paint America: Coming to a town near you!"
Best wishes Habitat Bike Challenge! Thanks for the fun.

Hey Ranger Mike! Not sure if we're worthy of all of the credit you gave us, but love the blog! It was awesome to see you again last night. Where should our next encounter be...my vote is for Kenya. Game??? All the best and thanks again for one of the most memorable days of our trip! -Em
