That really isn't much at all. Looking at my past tracks I do 400 feet in 15 miles around my neighborhood and there isn't a hill in it!

I bet you probably do more climbing in most mountain bike rides...

You've been doing all this road riding, you may as well put it to some good use.. ;)

A co-worker and I are both going to do the 50k ride. Looks like we are going to set up a team under our firms name tomorrow. I will post up a link to to my fund raising page once it's setup so you can all donate to the cause.

Toying around with the idea that if I reach an certain fund raising goal (will need to be HUGE) that I will do the 100k route. Not sure about it though.

Awesome! Let us know when you get the fundraising setup.

Just got my first donation (and a very generous one at that) from Marc Moseley of all people. I guess all those years of Randi and I giving him donations to ride in the PanMass Challenge came back in a good way.

I just got an email from Mark letting me know that his company FM Global will be matching his donation.

It turns out that the firm I work for designed the office for the charity this ride supports.

He actually got married last year......I'm thinking mail order bride or she is recovering from a massive head injury :)

Seriously Marc is a great guy. In addition to this he also rides in the PanMass Challenge every year which has a HUGE fund raising minimum and he also came out this way a couple of years ago to participate in a charity mountain bike ride to bennifit a good friend of fellow AZr Paul
