Seagull Century

[madscot13]

Thanks, it's been 4 years, so emotions aren't as raw as they were, but it does still hit me occasionally with this process.

What amazes me most is how incredibly generous people are, almost everyone I have asked has given, and even some I haven't!

You're really close to your goal. Best of luck, it's a real weight off once you hit it.

I'm sure it is a real weight off. It was a weight off when i got my first $100 (my first donation), my first $500, my first $1000, and as soon as some of my volunteering money is put in, my first $1500.

I also feel lucky by donations. although sometimes, I'm a biut surprised by those who aren't donating.

I'm planning to do the Metric Century in the Seagull--I didn't see anything about fund raising though? Is that required?

No fundraising required.

no, Seagull century does not require you to fundraise (although you can donate to the high school and habitat for humanity). I am riding for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and then fundraising is required.

Ok, thought I had missed something. I'm doing the Annual Between the Waters Bike Tour in Oct., too in Wachapreague, VA. Y'all might be interested in that one.

Oh I've wanted to do Between the Waters for a couple of years - maybe this year will be the one.

I will likely do either the Seagull or Between the Waters but I will have to be away for about 10 days in October. Only problem is, I don't know which 10 days it is just yet - so can't sign up for anything yet.

Squirrell, that sounds like a great ride. I like the oyster bake afterwards too! I will have to wait and see what is going on for me at the end of October.

The Between the Waters Ride is a nice one--I ride the same roads every day and they go through some beautiful areas of the Shore. Not sure what they're exact route will be this year, as I haven't registered yet, but the guy told me it will very likely be close it not the same as last year's route. I wasn't riding then (didn't start until April) but the marks are still on the road, so I know where they went last year.
