  • Tour de Cure

    Hi all

    This will be my 4th year riding and I am hoping to raise $3000.00 for the American Diabetes Assoc. But I can only do this with your support.

    On June 3rd 2012 in Saratoga Springs I will be riding my bicycle 100 miles rain or shine.

    Please help with this very worthy cause

            only 5 days until the tour.
            a quick 20 mile ride this morning before it got too hot.
            one more 30 mile ride this week will put my miles logged this month at 250 miles. in 3 months of training i have logged almost 500 miles.
            my fund raising is at 80% $ 2415.00. my goal is $3000.00. please help me reach my goal by making a donation to this very worthy cause.

                  Hey canoejr,
                  Sounds like you're a serious cyclist...what's your average season mileage?
                  Do you do club rides? Commute?
                  I just started commuting for the season, but it's only 2 miles to work, but it's a good time to relax at each end of the day.
                  Most of my rides are during lunch, I can squeeze in 20-22 miles on a flat ride. I have a hilly route with almost 3,000 feet of climbing, I like the hills!!
                  Some years I manage to get nearly 3,000 miles in, some years barely 1,400.
