Our Mini Field Trip

      For our mini field trip our team went to see Dr. Keith Andrew.  He showed us many things that Lance has to do in a race.  He even brought in a bike that Lance could possibly use in a race. One of the things that Lance would need a lot of is water.  In the picture above you can see a water bottle that may be used during a long race like the Tour De France.  Our team learned many things from Dr. Keith Andrew about the races that Lance has competed in and the strength,  durability, dedication and training it takes to be able to complete such a vigorous race.  We also learned about the gears on the bike and that lance also keeps an extra tire and an air pump on his bike in case he gets a flat along the way.  Most of all we learned about his perseverance to never give up even when he was diagnosed with cancer.  We thank Dr. Keith Andrew for reinforcing what Lance said "I used to ride my bike to make a living.  Now I just want to live so that I can ride".
