A couple days ago...i don't remember the town or the date (concussion), on HWY 11, I hit a dog. Favor - this dog will "never" run out in front of a cyclist again...no need to thank me. (I don't know what happened to the dog)...
I don't remember anything from seeing the dog to being in the moving ambulance with Criselda going to the emergency room...It's weird not remebering an hour of your life. I was told I kept asking what happened and if my bike was o.k. :)

Regarding Long Beach: I was so impressed and blessed by the hospitality of the church. They are amazing people and I couldn't have asked for a better place to start the ride. They g… Continue
