I rarely post about me, or my family.

I was raised by a single mom from 2 until I was about 10. That was probably really hard for her in the 60s. Whenever I ask her, she just says it wasn't so hard.

We had a lot of roommates to help with the cost of apartments, one was Georganne (Giorgi Baino Sr.). She seemed to be around the longest. I really liked her, she was like an aunt to me.

Maybe 10 or more years ago, we got back in touch - Sadly, just on Facebook. I am going to try to have a video chat with her to catch up.

Anyhow, it seems my mom wrote a poem about me when I was a kid, and Georganne has always played guitar. The song was about me riding bikes, I never heard it until yesterday. For those that know me, you know I've been a cyclist (avid at times) for the last 15 years.

She put the poem to music and sent it to me yesterday. I cried.

Here it is if you're interested.

I cried.

That's really awesome and thank you for sharing! 😊

I also used to be an avid cyclist / endurance racer and have great memories of those times.

Races such as the Vail 100, Brian Head 100 and 24-hour races were my "jam" during those years.
