The Charlie Dittmeier (my father) sons and daughters love to get together and last night’s gathering was about more than food. A bunch of us are cyclists and Mary (L) and her husband Mike had a chance to show off their wheels to all of us. Mary’s bike (pink?, lavender?) is the same model as mine. The black cycle is one of Mike’s. He rides about 200 miles a week now that he is retired, including three or four 50+ mile rides. He also did the Triple Bypass in Colorado last year–three 10,000+ foot peaks in one day in a 120-mile race!
