As many of you already know, I am doing the Red Ribbon Ride for the third year in a row. One of the biggest challenges in doing this ride is raising the money. Most charitable rides in Minnesota have 100-500 dollar requirement to ride, however this ride has a 1500 dollar requirement. Today I have surpassed the 1000 dollar mark thanks to a few VERY generous donations from the company I work for, W3i. I have been on edge lately because I am having a more difficult time because my roommate, Eric (If you had a blog, this would be a link :)), and I have a lot of friends in common. Many people are splitting up their donations this year. I hopefully will be able to make the requirement now and can focus on the training to ensure that I complete all 300 miles!
Michael!
Thanks for all you do for the Ride and the fight against AIDS!
