Affiliations
I am in a bike club with twelve people who ride 30 miles in a day. We have the rule of no one left behind in case of an accident like a flat tire. I have been riding with this group for five years and find it challenges my body and mind. I have ridden up to 550 miles on the seven Day Ragbrai trip in Iowa. I have done this even more than a few times
I was a substitute teacher in Chicago and enjoyed it tremendously. Currently being a volunteer helping teach fourth graders to read has been an experience I have enjoyed in the desert. Also I was a basketball coach when my son was growing up and helped the children how to become a good sport regardless of their athletic level. Children need all the help they can get from models in the classroom.
