Hmm not sure if I'm doing it again this yr, might do SD rock n roll marathon. :P

[MM_QFC!]

While I missed fellow TE rider, Maryellen on the ESAR ride this year, I did lead a team of Puget Sound Riders from the Seattle area to my birth state of New York and our team contributed almost $25,000 to the total raised so far; my fundraising total at this point is $4,150

And, just like many of you, I'm sure, have also $upported many friends in their charity ride/walk efforts this year, donating to the Breast Cancer Fund climb of Mt. Rainier, MS150 Walk-Massachusetts, MS150 ride-Washington, Race for the Cure-Denver/Komen Breast Cancer, Light the Night Walk-Seattle/Leukemia to name several.

There are truly so many worthy causes to fight; however I made a commitment years ago: to ride my bike, raising funds in support of wide-ranging efforts in the fight against HIV/AIDS. So I will continue to ride for the same reason and hope to someday ride - just for the pure joy and fun of it!
Ride on girls and tailwinds to all of us!
Mary

I haven't been posting, it was a tough year. But...I raised more than 2 cents it was more than 2 cents. I rode The Ride for Missing Children again in May of 2006. I raised $600.00. Only we count it in posters for missing children, 2400 posters. My son raised $500,00 as well, but probably boys don't count here! We raised the money together, so add it up any way you want.

By the way, there's nothing quite like training for a ride, and completing it with your 16 year old son. (It did make me feel old, but that's another post)

I am amazed and humbled at the amounts you folks raise for your rides.

:D

[Jenerator]

Some of my pictures from the 2006 Police Unity Tour (http://www.coloradopoliceunitytour.com/Site/2006%20Ride%20Photos.html) are on the site I've put together for the Colorado contingent riding this year.

[Trek420]

Jenerator, How long was your ride? Looks great.

Oh, I forgot mine, Bike Against the Odds, I'm in here somewhere:

www.breastcancerfund.org/siteapps/tools/PhotoGallery.aspx?c=kwKXLdPaE&b=1200145

[Jenerator]

The chapter that I rode with did about 300 miles over 4 days, starting in northern New Jersey, passing through Ground Zero and finishing at the National Law Enforcement Memorial in D.C. Other chapters came from southern NJ and Virginia. A very hard core group did a cross-country relay from LA to DC.

[Trek420]

Jenerator,

I'd say 300 miles over 4 days is fairly "hard core" :cool:

Here's an article about my niece, UK Elephant on this board, in training for the AIDS ride. Yikes :eek: she's enlisted the athletic department. Now I'll never keep up with her. I'll just have to eat my way to the finish.

[Jenerator]

What a great opportunity to be a research subject and get personalized training!

[Trek420]

Yeah, I think it's a win-win for all. :D
