Tour De Cure - Help a good cause and sponsor me!!

Well it's that time of year again. Time for me to beg everyone that I know to donate a few bucks to the American Diabetes Association. Last summer Hans asked me to join his cycling team, Velocity, for the Tour De Cure ride. I did and it was a fantastic experience. Besides great weather, I was able to help make a small difference in the fight against Diabetes.

Last year I ended up doing the 50 mile ride and that pretty much kicked my ass. I have been jogging quite a bit over the winter so hopefully it isn't such a challenge this year. I have toyed with the idea of joining the century club, but I think I would need to dump my hybrid bike for a road bike. Not sure this will happen by this years ride or by June or not. I will do at least the 50 mile ride though.

Any donations in my name or my team members names would be greatly appreciated. I lead our team last year with donations just shy of $800. I hope to surpass that figure this year.

Also, if you are interested in participating in the ride yourself, shoot me an email.
