MS150 Training Season is Open

Posted: February 23, 2011 in Cycling

2 years ago, on the Lynchberg Ferry during a training ride.

Last weekend I got my butt back on the bicycle for the first time since October.

I ended up leading a group of new PCC riders to Froberg’s Farm and back – about 28 miles.

I was a bit rusty after all of that time off, and my hamstrings were speaking quite loudly when I got back to the car, but it’s good to be back and good that the weather is cooperating. Plus I got to teach a newbie how to change a tire and teach him the importance of riding with spare tubes & tools. I’ll bet he’ll have a saddle bag with a tool kit on his bike this weekend – it would have been much worse if he got that flat while riding alone.

I’m $200 away from hitting the minimum fundraising requirement for this ride, and I’d really like to blow past the minimum before April. Special thanks go out to Comrex Corporation for stepping up with $100 a few weeks back. Can you spare $25 or $50 for MS? Okay, can you spare $5 or $10? Every donation is appreciated, and every donation makes a difference in someone’s life.
