Dreadhead Posted September 12, 2014 Report Posted September 12, 2014 My wife was hoping to do a fundraiser sometime this year for the American Cancer Society in memory of her mom who passed away about 3 years ago. Unfortunately I knocked her up and she never had opportunity to do any major event. So I'm stepping in and using the ACS Events tool to raise money for my ride on September 21st 2014. The event is the Back Roads Century (http://www.backroadscentury.org/). It's a moderate century and not as epic as some of the other people around here have completed recently but it still should be fun and I hope you guys and gals can help me raise money for a good cause. The donation link is here: http://main.acsevents.org/goto/Chris_Kent
Dreadhead Posted September 12, 2014 Author Report Posted September 12, 2014 Thanks for all the generous support guys! You rule!
Dreadhead Posted September 15, 2014 Author Report Posted September 15, 2014 Less than a week to go. Went out for a ride yesterday and ended up hooking up with a group ride and it turned out that a bunch of the people are doing this event and even at the pace I'm planning. I guess I'll sort of know some people now 1
Dreadhead Posted September 21, 2014 Author Report Posted September 21, 2014 Halfway through. Average over 19. Let's see if I survive. 2
