A 15 year old inspires others in a Bike race....... My Izzy

I have to share this with you, My grand daughter Izzy Holland will be riding a bicycle in today's 2015 Iron Range Roll at 1:00 pm. It is not really remarkable, except for the fact that Izzy is all of 100 pounds, and will be riding 16 miles.  Oh, did I mention she will be PULLING her brother Junie in a bike cart behind her. Junie, 9 years old, weighs 57 pounds and has special needs requiring 24/7 care which does not allow him to ride himself, so Izzy is making it happen! Izzy will be wearing the YELLOW Start The Cycle jersey tomorrow. She really is not aware of how amazing this is, because in her heart she is just loving her brother and doing what a caring sibling does best, spending time with her little brother. The trail is almost all downhill, some 400 feet in 16 miles, and she will be riding from Ishpeming to Downtown Marquette on the Iron Range Trail.
