On a day when everyone had so many other (more important) things to think about (Uh... T1D, and their own health needs), I was humbled that they helped me celebrate all dang day. After more than several opportunities to try it out, the "happy birthday" song became my hill climbing mantra. (Try it sometime. It really works!) <br /><br />Needless to say, I am humbled and inspired as well, and hugely honored to have been asked to be a part of the team this year. <br /><br />I was also proud to have the opportunity to offer my skills as a mechanic - as meager as they may be - to contribute in some small way to the riders and the event in general. <br /><br />It was an event I'll never forget. And I was more than proud to say that I was from the West Michigan Team. <br /><br />There was MUCH bikeface, I assure you!
