SammyRides Daily Blog April 2, 2011

TODAY was a day to catch up on laundry,
go to a bike shop for parts, and plan the
route for the coming week as the riders
prepare to leave Texas and in a couple
of days, enter Louisiana.
 It also affords the riders a chance to
make telephone  calls to family and friends
and reassure everyone that they are all fine
and able to continue the arduous journey.
Even on a day when the riders are resting,
there are always opportunities to let people
know about the purpose of the ride and
encourage them to log on to the web site
and support the project in spreading the
word that pediatric cancer needs to be
conquered. In that spirit, in every restaurant
 and every hotel, the riders make a point of
giving out Sammyrides cards and talking
about the ride. The riders hope that all our
wonderful blog readers will do likewise and
encourage all their friends to follow the ride
and join the war against pediatric cancer.
As mentioned above,  the riders will soon be leaving Texas....it's been an incredible journey meeting the wonderful and kind residents within each community and we thank each and every one of them for their generous hospitality and warm friendship.
From the great state of Texas, Michael, Adolf, Mike B. and John, send their love and best wishes to you all.
