Darrell & "The Great Ride"


We are in the middle of training! Darrell is preparing to ride from the Rio Grande all the way up to the Red River! Along with Ron Holland, Darrell Crow, Mike Bell, & Hector Hinojosa, Darrell will be riding his bike anwhere from 60-90 miles a day for 9-10 days. The guys are really getting excited and Darrell is pumped about accomplishing this goal! The kids and I are trying to support him in every way from encouraging good eating habits for all of us to understanding why he is on his bike any and every free moment he has. We just figured out today that he has about 12 1/2 weeks to get ready! Keep these guys in your prayers as they prepare for this "Great Ride", they are also raising money for Sri Lanka relief. They want to purchase some bikes for transportation in Sri Lanka as well as try to get some electricity to a certain area that is without. If you are interested in supporting this cause, let us know and Darrell can give you all the details!

When are you riding through Ft. Worth?
Do you have a schedule?
