I know I've been offline for a while, but things have been pretty busy with family and work. I need to catch up on the forum in a BIG way (and write a few articles I owe you guys), but for now- help me support a good cause- the fight against diabetes (or diabeetus if you're Wilford Brimley).

^^ That's the page. :)

I did this ride last year, but only went 30 miles since it was my first organized riding event that wasn't airborne half the time on a trail somewhere... This year I'm riding 62 miles to help raise awareness (and cash) to help fight diabetes!

I could bore you with text, but I'll keep it short- you all know what the disease is and how much it can mess with a person's life. Help me fund research for a cure. My personal fundraising goal is $1000, and the company team goal is $150k this year.

Pics from last year's ride:

Super sweaty halfway through:

Starting line- you ride the first two miles on the main oval before heading out onto the course:

The check from last year- this year's goal is $150k! Help hit the mark!

Please help! Every dollar counts. Now on to the 88k posts I'm behind...
 
Do I contribute per mile that you ride or is it a flat amount? Let me know if you also ride in other events like the MS (multiple sclerosis) bike ride and such. Thank you for your efforts to help others in great need.

Flat amount- there are dollar values suggested in the donation form, but you can put in whatever amount you want. I haven't ridden in the MS yet, but I plan to if I can make the MS150 on the next run in Dallas. My wife would like to join me too- but she needs a road bike and gear first! Thanks for any donation!
