Postscript

I just want to add a bit to this journal about thanks.  Thanks for all my friends and supporters who helped get me to where I am today. I had no idea so many people cared so much about each other and were willing to help out so much.  Life is sometimes about luck, some of us are lucky and get healthy bodies at birth and carry on to reproduce another generation of healthy kids, and some of us arn't so lucky.  This ride is about the other folks.

We all take lots for granted in life, doing this ride with parents of CF kids, researchers, friends and family with CF connections has taught me more than I could ever have imagined. With all of your support raising over $7000. became a reality, and now with all of your cheers, good wishes and "go do it's" daily here on the Unternet I find the willpower and strength to finish the challenge of getting to our next
stop everyday.

To all you boilermakers in Kamloops a special thanks for really kicking it up a notch, I feel the love believe me., you women and men are special to me in ways you can't imagine...I think of you as I am pedalling for hours on end up and down endless roads here thru our beautiful province.  It is a different sort of way to see this place, we see, smell and hear things you can't experience in a car, so worth it.

I am tired, no doubt about that..my parts are aching but so are everyone else's and we are a tight team now so none of us will quit until we finish this thing.

Thanks again, enjoy every breath..love kitty

Note by Stan Shaw, October 8th 2012:  I happened to be reviewing our team journal and have only noticed, just now, that Kitty had posted this lovely message after the conclusion of our trip in 2010.  Unfortunately, it was not published at the time. So,  here it is!  Kitty, it was an absolute pleasure riding with you.  What a wonderful ride it was.  Your post, and this journal, continues to bring some wonderful memories. It was a TERRIFIC team effort, for a great cause.
