10/28/2009: ""That's Just the Way I Ride My Bike....""
Eighty-four-year-old Lan Yin Tsai just rode New Jersey's City to Shore MS benefit ride--all 150 miles of it--in a dress and high heels...and she's been doing it for 26 years!
"In Taiwan, riding a bike is very common," explains Tsai's grandson, Alan Sim, who also participates in City to Shore -- 2009 was his sixth year. "So she grabbed her little one-speed bike and was doing the ride."
