Taking the Ride of My Life! :)


As many of you know, this year I have joined with several members of my family in riding the Tour de Cure for Diabetes! Our team name is the Blood Sugar Daddies. Catchy right? :) We are choosing to go on the 25 mile ride! This is quite the goal for me as I have never done anything like this before, but am very excited to do it this year! All of you support both financial and emotional is greatly appreciated. I am dedicating this ride this year, personally to my friend Dawn as she is the one who coaxed, encouraged, harrassed....however you classify it (all of the above, actually)...to do this for myself as well as all of those in my family and around the world who suffer from this disease. Dawn and I had planned to train and ride together and while she will not be there with my physcially, she will be there with me in spirit!!
I also have a goal to raise $500 to go toward research to find a cure! I am currently 34% there! So I have a ways to go!!! Below is the link to my personal webpage where you can click on the link to sponsor me in this endeavor....any amount no matter how small will help me in reaching my goal! You are also welcome to join our team, or to simply come up and cheer us on! June 13th is the date and there is a link with details on the below page to where the festivities will be! Come on up!! I could use the encouragement for sure!!! :) Please show your support in any way you can! Thanks so much!!!
