Rubicon leads Arkansas' LIVESTRONG Day ride
The team arrived in Little Rock on Monday night and hooked up with Jenn, a huge LAF supporter and crashed at her house. Tuesday, we built our bikes and then it was off to ORBEA to meet Tony and the crew and do an easy lunchtime ride with Justin. Wednesday we met with the Arkansas Children’s hospital and the team visited four floors handing out tons of LIVESTRONG wristbands. I’m not really sure who was excited more about meeting the guys, the kids or the hospital staff . . .it was all-good.

After the hospital visit, we rolled over to Little Rock’s new baseball stadium, where we met up with about 80 people waiting to meet the team, including the Mayor of Little Rock. Speeches where given, the team again handed out LIVESTRONG wristbands and with a police escort -off we went on a 22 mile LIVESTRONG ride through the heart of Little Rock with 80 of our closest friends. The guys chatted with all the people who came out to ride with us, and show support for all those who have battled cancer. –It was an awesome site and I was very glad to be part of it.
