Day 227/365 [Year 2]

After seeing a float pass me by at Boston Pride, and having never [prior to the day this picture was taken - now I've officially done over 30 mile rides] ridden more than 15 miles on a bike in my life, I have signed up to take part in the Harbor To The Bay ride.

This is a 125 mile bike ride from Boston to Provincetown that "improves community awareness and care for people living with HIV and AIDS. Our mission is to give 100% of what we raise to our beneficiaries! No politics, no elaborate production -- just a dedicated group of individuals who want to ride and make a difference in our community. This is a grass roots initiative, and we are solely run by volunteers!"

All of the money donated to this ride goes to HIV/AIDS research/support/education. In my case, the money you donate will be going to the Aids Action Committee of Massachusetts

I will update occasionally as I train and prepare for the ride, on September 12th, and each time I will include a link to my donation site, like so:
