Me and Grandpa Frank
On Saturday me, my dad, my mom, Tiffany Dreyer, and Colette rode 67 miles! This guy that belongs to my church put it on and it was called a metric century it turned out to be 67 miles because it was a metric. It was a pretty easy ride compared to last Saturdays and it even started to rain on us which made it more fun. Whenever I’m on these long rides I make up weird songs in my head and then I try to remember them later to tell my Mom and I can’t remember them? Riding your bike for long distances makes you think a lot.
Later on we met up with my Grandpa Frank. He lives in Florida. We went out to dinner, it was so good I had a burger and fries. Then after dinner he took us to see Avatar 3D. That movie was so amazing! It was so funny because at dinner my Grandpa was saying how he and Grandma Gloria ride there tandem bike in this circle in their neighborhood three times and it adds up to 3 miles. He was so proud of that until he realized how many miles I do. I really like hanging out with my Grandpa I am actually named after him, my middle name is Thomas which is his last name. I wish he lived closer.

You look just like him….. minus the mustache. Always listen to your grandpa’s stories. Later in your life you will never regret time spent with a grandparent.
Keep up the good work!

Good to meet you at the Metric Century ride a week ago. Congratulations on doing all 67 miles. That was a brutal ride, but enjoyable with all the great riders who showed up. Nice to ride with you and your group! Good Luck with everything.
