Ride
This will be my 12th year riding to end MS, and I’m taking on a few new challenges to do my part. This will be my fist Bike MS century, with a little more than 100 miles on day one. It’s also the hilliest MS ride I’ve done, with a second day that winds through the Texas Hill country.
I’ll be training in Austin every Sunday morning, starting at 8:30 AM at the Veloway. If you’d like to join me, just drop me a line and I’ll get you an invitation.
To keep me honest in my training, I’m posting my progress here. It’s been almost a year since I’ve ridden regularly, so this is going to be an intense few months for me.
