Wednesday, 1Sep10, Albuquerque, NM, UBS at Sport Systems
A special thanks to Charlene Smith of UBS, DeWayne of Sport Systems, Leah of 93.3 KOB FM, Officer Hernandez of APD bicycle patrol, the Leukemia TEAM members … it was a pleasure to meet each of you and the many cyclists whom I met today … thanks for the great day in Albuquerque, NM.
Today was an interesting day in Albuquerque, NM, with UBS (United Blood Systems) which held a promotional event at Sport Systems, an incredible bike shop in downtown … we had a great time there with Leah Black from KOB FM 93.3 FM … also I met DeWayne (owner of Sport Systems which held and sponsored over 30 cycling events this year) AWESOME JOB, DeWayne!
The representatives of the Leukemia Society TEAM sponsorship were at the event and they were at awesome team … thanks to everyone! To the husband who is serving in the Air Force … thank you for your service to our country!
To Officer Hernandez … APD bicycle patrol … you are awesome and thanks for taking a picture with me!
To the young lady I met today (whose friend is in the hospital because of a bicycle crash in a race) with a lacerated liver and other injuries … our prayers go with her and lots of healing thoughts that she will recover quickly … as you said … you never know will you’ll need blood.
After the event … I drove 7 hours from Albuquerque, NM, to Phoenix, AZ, area (Scottsdale, Mesa, Tempe, and then back to Scottsdale) a long driving day … yet, I’m looking forward to the UBS events tomorrow in Tempe, AZ.
