AIDS Life cycle ride

[Trek420]

CycleGiant3 "I think what you are doing is awesome. One of the main reasons I wanted to get into cycling was to participate in the AIDS and Cancer cycles. I am on the east coast and unfortunatly I have not been able to find any rides. I am continuing to look though! I will follow along on the web, I think it is so exciting! Good luck and have a great time."

well folks, y'all can congratulate me when I finish ;-)

I surprised myself last year, although I bonked on day 3 (not fun) the rest of the ride i did well. My goal was then and is now to do every mile but last year Day one was the longest ride I'd ever done, day was 2 my first century (what was I thinking?) and there are two of these on the ride....oddly I found that after day 3 I just felt stronger each and every day. I think that's the spirit on this ride.

I've trained more this year, I'm a lot lighter, I hope to do well, just eat, drink, ride safely.

cyclegiant, I found http://www.thesmartride.org/ which is in Florida, found that ride and lots more on www.thegoodcyclist.org which is a site that lists charity bike rides in every state and lots of countries too, you go girrl...or come out here and ride with us.
