Thought that after the last post (re. Conviction of Dr. who injured cyclist) that we needed some uplifting news. Found this wonderful piece when having my hot tea the other morning and wanted to share not only the great feat of riding 150 miles but more stunning was the attire she wore!
New Jersey Shore is where this amazing story took place with 84 year old Lan Yin Tsai who is a still practicing massage therapist for MS patients. Every year the National MS Society organizes fundraiser rides across the country to bring awareness and to raise money for the fight against MS.
On the starting line, Lan Yin Tsai was mounted on her single speed Purple bike with a wire basket in front wearing a Green Turtleneck dress with an embroidered jacket and high-heeled pumps! When asked why she dressed like this her response was that she went to church, so I always dressed up and would ride my bicycle. Truly Amazing!
Her grandson rode the 150 miles with her and she finished again. She usually finishes last but has many well wishers waiting for her at the end.
