Sarah and I will be participating in the MS150 bike ride this coming September to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. It consists of two consecutive days of bike rides (rides not races) totaling 150 miles which we will do with a team of folks from the Seattle area, some of whom we know well and some of whom we will know much better before this is all over (most of whom are S&W employees). The rides will be held up in the Bellingham/Anacortes area. It is an individual ride...so no team riding entries will be allowed. In the spirit of raising awareness for MS we are also trying to raise funds to help with research, developing new treatment possibilities, and helping all those people and their families, who are living with MS everyday. Support of any kind would be much appreciated and put to good use by the National MS Society. We will update our blog with some photos from the event... Sarah just realized that it will be a "challenging" course.. should be interesting.
