Women's Metric Century in Marin

I'm very excited to announce the All Women's Metric Century in beautiful Marin County:

DATE: Sunday, August 27th
LOCATION: beginning in Fairfax, CA (exact location to be announced)
DISTANCE/TERRAIN: Metric Century w/ approximately 3500 feet of climbing
Registration/Fundraiser Fee: $60

You'll tour through some of Marin’s most beautiful landscape including the Nicasio Reservoir, Golden Gate National Recreation Area, and Tomales Bay.

Registration is limited to 100 women for this inaugural event. You can register at the Breast Cancer Fund website.

Riders are encouraged to raise additional funds for the Breast Cancer Fund.

I sincerely hope you can join us!

Net proceeds from this event benefit the Breast Cancer Fund. If you or anyone you know would like to contribute to making this event cost-free as possible (e.g., donating food, entertainment, equipment rentals, photography, medical support, etc.), please send me an email: cindy@lunachix.net

Thanks!

I registered! I'm in! Wheeeee!

This may be the perfect metric to shoot for with my daughter. How cool!!

Hey Cindy... if you're looking for entertainment, my band could come and play and I'm sure we could convince the guys to do it as a freebie. We play jazz and blues and some alternative-style jazz, as well. I wouldn't ride if we did that... that's the only bummer.

OOHHHHH, Cool! I have a better idea!

you get to ride (I think we'll just do cd's over a sound system or something), and the band gets to play at one of our other more intimate fundraisers!!

we're working on a few things and I'll be in touch!

Sounds awesome!! :) Keep me posted!

I was thinking of getting a team of some of my team in training friends together - and got some interest. So far, the only team name that's been suggested is "Tough Titties" which was the name of my friend Stacy's mom's breast cancer support group. Do you think that'd be too risque for a team name?? :rolleyes:

I haven't broken the news to Em yet that we're doing this. (That's us at Cinderella 03 or 04 in my avatar). I have to get her psyched up to get some miles in between now and then!! ;)

I think that's a perfect name! My SIL is a survivor, also, and I know for certain she'd think it was a riot!! :)

Due to technical glitches or logistics or the weather the registration site is temporarily down so I went ahead and registered for BATO in September and then try to be one of the lucky 100 later on.

We are not planning to cancel the event. In the mean time, do register for BAO!

more soon! ;)
