The announcers are always talking about him etc." I explained to him what the Peleton was....man we laughed.....great inside joke now. I called him the other day and told him that his favorite ride "Peleton" was racing in the USA Pro Challenge.
Nice! My mom kept cheering for the guys in the break away, "they're going to win, they led the race for so long." I kept telling her that hardly ever happens. Then all of a sudden I hear her shout, "oh my gosh, they caught up!" She's 71 and has been fairly sheltered her whole life. It's funny when she comes out of her shell. I got her to try sushi and green tea ice cream last week for the first time as well. She loved them.
