| |  As most of you know, Darren and I are participating the 2009 BB&T MS Tour to Tanglewood THIS WEEKEND. We both will be enduring the heat, pain and agony for this 2-day, 90-mile bike ride to raise money for National Multiple Sclerosis Society, in honor of our close friend, Debbie! If you are unfamiliar with the event, the The 24th Annual Bike MS: BB&T Tour to Tanglewood is a 2-day cycling event that raises funds to support people living with multiple sclerosis in Central North Carolina and throughout the United States. Money raised through this event funds MS research, programs, services, and advocacy. This year, over 2000 cyclists and volunteers will participate in the event and raising $1.2 million to create a world free of MS.
I am asking you to join us in the fight against MS by making a contribution to support our efforts. You can pledge any amount by visiting the website links below. If you would like to donate please visit our personal Tour to Tanglewood fundraising pages: Darren's Page or Laura's Page. (I have reached my goal, please donate to Darren’s efforts.) Darren and I have been training for this event all summer and are ready for the challenge! Here are some photos from one of the training rides a few weeks ago at Cycles de Oro in Greensboro.

This is my friend Ed (in the orange jersey). I met this guy when I was working my first job (age 15). He has lost over 100 lbs in the past 11 years!
And we are off!
Here's Darren!
Here I am... 
This guy rides every year! This is too much fun! |
