This past Sunday I completed my first cycling Marathon, the L.A. Bike Ride, as part of the Los Angeles Marathon, riding more than 24 miles in 1 hour and 13 minutes.
Now that I have done it once, next year Operation HOPE will lead a cycling team in the 2008 L.A. Bike Ride with a "miles for money" goal, proceeds to benefit our favorite charity — Operation HOPE.
A special thanks to my sweetie, Mrs. Sheila Kennedy Bryant, for hanging with me at five o’clock in the morning for the race start!
Stay tuned for the HOPE 2008 team ride…
Onward with HOPE
John Hope Bryant
