Hi people. For those who are interested here is a link to my training blog for this year's TRAM (The Ride Across Minnesota).
http://main.nationalmssociety.org/site/ ... g=personal
This year's 300 mile 5 day bicycle ride starts in Bemidji, Minnesota as we make our way from there to our first stop in Walker, Minnesota on Monday, July 23. Then it's on to Park Rapids, Minnesota on Tuesday. From there we go to Wadena on Wednesday, then to Fergus Falls on Thursday, and we complete our last leg of the tour to Alexandria, Minnesota on Friday. It should be a great ride this year, with 3 days of riding on bicycle trails.
TRAM is a once a year "Bike MS" event that's been held each year in Minnesota for the past 27 years. It is the only MS sponsored event in the country that is 5 days and 300 miles long. All others are 1 or 2 day rides. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society uses money collected from Bike MS events to fund cutting-edge research, drive change through advocacy, facilitate professional education, and provide programs and services that help people with MS and their families move their lives forward. I'm willing to work my muscles hard to help those who can't do that themselves. If you can help me do that I would be very grateful.
If you wish to help sponsor me you can use the above link to make a donation to the MS Society. Or you can PM me if you prefer to donate via check. If you don't want to sponsor me, then that's fine, but I would appreciate any moral support you can muster by reading and commenting on my training blog.
Thanks.
Here's a couple of pictures of me from last year's TRAM. This will be my 3rd TRAM, and it looks like it will be the best one yet. I can't wait.
