Lofty goals but up for the challenge

Well, this past Saturday I signed up for a real challenge – to ride in the “America’s Most Beautiful Bike Ride!” The ride which will occur on June 5, 2011 will take me around Lake Tahoe with an out and back loop to Donner. The total elevation gain is over 1,100 feet, with a grueling 800′ climb over a span of seven miles!

Elevations of the 100 mile route.

I have begun training and look forward to checking another thing off my “bucket list!”

The greatest part of this ride though is the purpose of it. I have joined the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Team in Training to complete the ride and raise $10,000 dollars for blood cancer research!

You can join me by donating to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society at this secure link Mark Dendy’s TNT Page. You can also follow my fundraising efforts, and please, come out at root for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Team in Training
