Jeffery Davis Martin - 70 x 70

We had the pleasure to spend the day riding with the cycling guru of the family.  Dad (JD) spent the afternoon peddling 70 miles through Ventura and Santa Barbara as a celebration ride on behalf of his 70th Birthday.  Very cool.  The boys had the delightful and memorable opportunity to share in the fun which included:  Sean, Korey, Rudy, Mike, and yours truly.  Dad rode strong, smart, and showed that he is not just some normal dad at 70.

Up the coast and yours truly drafting dad.  Illustration of both me and Seans life...

Great finish and a great meal in the end.  We got to gorge on burgers and shakes after earning every penny that day.  Appreciate my dads commitment to fitness and cycling and paving the way for our family activities.  Dad - your effort that day was a joy to watch and we appreciate the fellowship together.  Sean and I both thank the other men who helped make the day a memorable event and thanks to Korey, Rudy, and Michael for making the ride.  But especially thanks to Dad for training and making this day an important event in his life.  We all love you dad and praise God for you.
