Roswell, NM to Clovis, NM (Peggy Sue!)

Dear Blog readers, family, friends, Kid's Net and Rohwer Elementary,

Today was a beautiful day! I was one of the top 5 riders in and I averaged 21 mph for 109 miles. It was heavenly! The route from Roswell to Clovis was much "flatter" than the days past, and I found myself in my element. The opportunity to ride with such experienced riders is truly a blessing. I was able to do a tv interview for WIBM television and talk about cancer detection - AND - also mention my beautiful Cade, Casey and Cale as my training team! I hope that all of you are enjoying the beauty and sunshine that surrounds us every day. We have so many things to be thankful for, and I am so grateful for all of the prayers and support each and everyone of you is sending me along this journey to talk about cancer awareness. The great folks of Ruidoso, NM, KBUY radio station and Lincoln County Tours certainly displayed a terrific support for this pink pedals tour by challinging their disc jockey Perry Champion to ride out of the Ruidoso area on a bike they will raffle off for the American Breast Cancer Foundation. Way to go Perry!

To my beautiful friends at Kid's Network, thank you so much for following the route and making this trip memorable for all. I love each and every one of you. Take good care of one another.

See you in 16 days!

Love, Donna
