September 2016: Ride Closer To Free - From being one of my donors to riding by my side this year! As always, thank you to my best friends and awesome family for their support and donations as I continue to ride and fight for those who are currently fighting for themselves - for a cure, a better life, and a better future.

All that to say, after a lot of 90s TV watching, Netflix recommended me to watch the ever popular Party of Five and it has become my favorite show to hate watch.  It is sooooooo terrible. So, come on this little hate watching journal journey with me if you want and be closer to free.  Welcome to the party.

October 2014: Making my mark was always on my bucket list of things to do before I die. Never will I forget the day my grandfather showed me an article of my uncle flying back to Vietnam with my local high schools' soccer team to visit my sick great grandmother and touching hearts back in the homeland. My grandfather had lectured me on giving without receiving, being a good role model, and staying in school. From that moment on, I wanted to be the good person and granddaughter that he can be proud of. I have experienced many challenges that lead me to be the person I am today, and I'd like to share my voice. Here, I'd also like to show my journey and the awareness of many organizations I've been and currently still involved with. I enjoy being involved within my community and I want to inspire others to become involved as well, no matter where you are and what you do. 

100 mile ride all over Connecticut on September 9. The route was meh, poorly marked towards the end and the first 100 or so riders were misdirected. Otherwise the food was tasty and I got to demo a sweet ass bike. A BMC TMR01 with Di2 electronic shifting. The bike was sick. I absolutely loved it. The shifting was amazingly smooth and the frame was super tight and stiff. 

Having a wonderful day with my wifers @closertofree! She gives me butterflies and feeds me margaritas!
