Every great endeavor needs a theme song. We’re a shoestring organization, so we can’t afford to hire a famous artist to write and record a custom theme. It doesn’t matter, because I have the perfect song. This lyric expresses the spirit of RICH’S RIDE: You can chase a dream that seems so out of reach, […]

What Goes Around …
“Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it […]

Are you ever paralyzed by the fear of missing out? One of my good friends loves sunsets. He goes absolutely bonkers at the sight of a gorgeous sunset. When you live in Colorado, the Rocky Mountains provide almost daily opportunities to savor this special sort of beauty. One evening we were at Coors Field in […]

Preparing for the ride involves details and arrangements I never imagined. We’ve been looking for a small covered trailer to haul our bikes and gear. This one showed up on the street next to our house this morning. I’m not sure it’s the answer we’re seeking. Anyone have a trailer they’re not using for a […]
