WHAT A DAY

Wow, seriously Saturday, May 14 was one of those days you never wanted to end. EVER.

It was an INCREDIBLE day with the official 2011 Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock Team Presentation. Which I'm on. WHICH I'M ON!!!!!!!!! Sorry, it still excites me beyond belief to just think of how huge an honor it is to ride with these people and for this cause.

So we started the day with a training ride out to Sidney, then off to the Royal BC Museum for our official team presentation. In front of all our friends and family, we were unveiled as this year's Tour de Rock, complete with introductions and our new training gear and super awesome bikes from TREK. I thought we were a team before, but now with matching uniforms and bikes, watch out!

After the team presentation and photos, we headed out to Sidney (again) for a special event that evening. As it turned out, there was a big fundraising gala for Constable Bob Lacroix, who was recently diagnosed with terminal cancer. He's got a wife and 4 kids. We decided to show our support as a team and attend the event on our bikes. We were given some police escorts who led and followed our pack around town before arriving at the gala. It was an incredibly special show of support to be apart of. The gala was a huge success and the community support went above and beyond.

Then we changed out of our uniforms and matched the night's theme of black and white.

It was a really wonderful day and like I said, I didn't want it to end. But the good news is, I'm certain we've got a lot more of those kinds of days in the weeks and months to come.
