Ride For AIDS Chicago

This weekend Ryan is participating in Ride For AIDS Chicago, a 200 mile bike ride that is the largest fund-raiser for his employer, TPAN.   Will and I met up with the riders in Bristol, Wisconsin, at a park for their lunch break.  

We got there about 10 minutes before Ryan arrived and had a great time cheering on other riders arriving at the pit stop.   Then we shared lunch with part of Ryan's Election Cycles team and played on the playground equipment before driving home.

The playground was definitely not a new and generic suburban park.  It had a (gasp!) merry-go-round and all metal equipment.  We had to skip one set of slides since they were too hot, but this giant slide was in the shade.  Will zipped down it a half dozen times before I had to pull him away.
