I Did it Again

I took on more than I should and need a bit of help.  Many of you know that Julie and I meet at the 1st Lance Armstrong event called Ride for the Roses down in Austin TX.  So, when my buddy asked me to join him this year to ride it- I quickly said yes.  Then remembered that I now have 4 kids and planning a weekend away on my own could be a tough sell but Julie was all for it.  Hopefully you might open this link and send me $5 towards my fundraising goal.  Or, join us on the team and come down to ride with me and Lance.

My many thanks to those that have help us raise thousands of dollars for the fight against cancer over the last few years.  The Lance Armstrong Foundation is an instrumental organization in not only helping to fund research aimed at curing cancer but the foundation is also a fantastic resource for those who may be dealing with this dreaded disease.  Please check out their website to see just what Lance has put together; Livestrong.org

This year I will once again ride through the Texas Hill Country in honor of my Brother, Tom, who bravely fought cancer and with whom I was able to cycle many miles with throughout his fight.  I addition, I am adding a new friend for whom I will be riding.  Rick Wrestling of Phoenix Arizona is a Cancer Survivor and is Living Strong.  Keep up the fight Rick!

Times are tough and money is tight this year so I’d like to take a little different approach to my fundraising efforts.  If you could donate just five dollars but at the same time send this message to ten friends then together we can raise the funds that will really make a difference.  Use the link to get to the Team Tom Ellis donation page. 

Thank you for your support in this fight against Cancer!

Who Comes To Your Birthday Party?

Well, if you are Jim Hoyt, owner of Richardson BikeMart- Lance Armstrong of course.  Lance showed up to last Saturdays BikeMart ride to help Jim ride his way to his 60th birthday.  He even stuck around for the party that night.  Happy Birthday Jim!
