BP MS 150 Update: Yay Daniel!

Even the terrible rain storm couldn't stop thousands of people from riding from LaGrange to Austin. It was a bit more chaotic than planned, but still an amazing event. Mom, Amy and I had a great time hanging out together with our Hannah and then it was off to the finish line.
