You should try to think about why you want to do the ride. If you feel that doing it would honor Tom's dad, then you should do it. It's this thought that matters, not the route you'll be riding. Of course, fund raising rides are a bother. I limit myself to one per year; you can't solicit support from the same people over and over without everyone getting burned out. If you support my Diabetes ride I'll support your ALS ride (actually, I'll support you anyway )
