After the ride, I hung out at the Fletcher Cove parking lot, talking to other riders. I got to catch up a little with my fellow radio contestants. I dropped off a couple of H2O Audio waterproof IPod cases and earbuds as contributions for Adam's and Joy's fund raising events. Joy has her Brew Bash coming up on Friday, September 25. Adam has his Poker Run the next day. They both sound like a lot of fun and I'm happy to contribute to their success.
While we were talking I noticed that Bob Babbit and Rudy Garcia-Tolson walked up and were chatting with some riders. I introduced myself and got to talk to Rudy a little bit. Rudy and Bob were getting ready to go down to the cove for a swim workout. Rudy is training for the Ironman World Championships in Kona in just 4 weeks time. Rudy is training to become the first bilateral, above the knee amputee to complete the race. Rudy is an amazing athlete and a very humble guy too. Please read about his training at www.challengedathletes.org/athletes_stories/Rudy_Garcia.htm#rudyblog.
