Charlotte and Kat share a special moment with the famous Chicken
Lady! She has completed all five AIDS Rides this year in a helmet adorned
with the names of loved friends she has lost and poultry to lighten the
load. Taking the hills twice to help others reach the top, she is a true
hero. Her motto: "NYC or Bust!" (with an illustrative thrust of her
balloon-augmented chest!) |

Naked Man is perfect example of the free-spirited, warm friends
we met along the way. He was especially effective in re-inspiring cranky
Kat with words of encouragement as she waited impatiently in the coffee
line and wondered aloud how her legs were going to complete yet another
100-mile day. Please note, that he was wearing a full sweatshirt during
that exchange. Later he was inspiring in that he could ride for so long
with so little between him and his bike seat! |

Jackio O. made an angelic appearance at Pit Stop 2, inspiring
us with her grace and class and several strands of plastic pearls which
we wore with pride thereafter. |
