Today is the coldest day of the year. When I left home for work this morning my car thermometer read 12 degrees below zero. Brrrrrr!What better to think about on such a frigid day than a nice long bike ride on a late summer day? My bike (Sally) is perched on the wall awaiting just such a ride.
Just moments ago I registered for the JDRF Ride for a Cure. I will be participating in the Killington, VT Century ride (100 miles) at the end of August. If you are a cyclist or would like to become a cyclist or even know someone who is a cyclist, you've just got to check out the JDRF Rides. They offer an amazing adventure of a lifetime in destinations like Sanoma and Death Valley, CA or White Fish, MT, Killington,VT or Tuscon, AZ. JDRF pays for all travel, accommodations, bike shipment, coaching, etc. All you have to do is fundraise for a great cause and pedal, pedal, pedal. And you choose the distance, doesn't have to be 100 miles. For more info, check out: http://www.ride.jdrf.org/
Or perhaps you'd rather let someone else do the riding? That's cool - I'm happy to take care of that part. Perhaps you might just consider a little donation to the cause? No donation is insignificant - even just $5 makes a very sincere contribution. So, would you please consider clicking on my personal pledge page and just dropping a few bucks in the pot? Also, feel free to check in over the next several months and see how I'm doing both with raising the bucks and pushing the pedals.

Thanks! And for all of you in the East, keep warm!!
