  “Good morning, Keri! What a nice email to receive upon waking up today. Thank you so much for your encouraging words and your generous donation. The plan is to keep riding until I have all the promised km completed. Unfortunately probably no outdoor ride today. We are getting the same weather system that caused you guys so much destruction a couple of days ago, but it has lost much of its bluster. That's why I have my stationary bike in the basement.”
