Comments on: GUARDIAN Proclaims Kristin Armstrong Day https://boiseguardian.com/2008/08/14/guardian-proclaims-kristin-armstrong-day/ A different slant on the news.

You see, when I was a little kid I was riding home on the school bus. We spotted an adult woman riding a bike. The kids started laughing and snickering about her. I was devastated because, you see, that woman was my mother. No one is laughing at Kristin. Women have come a long way. We still have a long way to go, but she’s taken us another giant step forward. God Bless you Kristin.

It could be a private/public venture named the “Kristen Armstrong Bridge” and have a plaque commemorating her acchievement.

The unmitigated audacity of Beater, jerking the rug out from under Kristin’s REAL home town, Garden City!

They were planning a big celebratory welcome-home photo-op bandwagon bike-ride down there, too! Skipping the section of Greenbelt that is closed to bike riding, of course.
