Well everyone, we did it! We have raised raising over $11,820.00 to date and still counting for the National MS Society, bringing us one step closer to finding a cure for Multiple Sclerosis!
 
Unfortunately Linda DuCharme's bike came loose from her bike rack Saturday morning and went skidding down the highway at 60 mph. And the amazing trooper that she is she had the bars wrapped with electrical tape and the seat adjusted as well as possible although it could not be repaired and rode on anyhow in addition to the $1,855.00 
 
We bicycled through a long, healthy rain storm on Saturday & 14-20 mph winds on Sunday picking up some solo GCC members along the route and we all finished the 150 miles with no injuries or flats and smiles on our faces. So we have elected to go back again next year and do it again!
 
Thanks to everyone once again for your support & donations, we couldn't have done it with out your help. I hope you join us next year!
