Day 2 The Trail of Tears

On Monday, our team took the road at 6 a.m. and had to work our way through some angry morning drivers getting to work. We started behind schedule as the previous nights teams had the pleasure of riding through a terrible thunderstorm. It took us about 2.5 hours to reach our first climb “The Trail of Tears”. It was a beautiful climb. Today, I was riding and praying for my mother in law Gladys Kohl, Lilly Clark and Howard Milligan. As the legs started burning up the climbs, I tried to remember the pain was nothing compared to the pain of cancer. I believe we ended up somewhere around 77 miles. After our shift, we were able to meet up with the Handlebar Hero’s and Team Leggs for lunch. We had a great night of rest in south Nashville. Ready for our shift today starting at noon until 6 p.m.
