I’m going to be riding the Multiple Sclerosis 150 mile benefit ride this year - again! Many were able to support me through encouragement as well donations to help me reach my fund raising goals. This is also a chance for me to connect with many friends who I haven’t heard from for a long time so drop a line when you get a chance - It would be great to hear from you again.

For those of you who are not aware, each year I participate in the Multiple Sclerosis 150 mile ride in Logan, UT. This ride benefits those with Multiple Sclerosis by funding local as well as national aid programs and research.

As many of you know, I have had a couple close friends that have recently been diagnosed with MS. I’m glad to be riding for them.

Time is short! I only have about a week and a half to achieve my fund raising goal. Check the link below to see how I am doing. It always seems that I put this off way too long :(

If you would like to help me by donating, you can pledge your support sometime this week or next (if possible, before Friday the 27nd of June, when I leave to go to Logan). And by the way, your donations are tax deductible.

Here’s how:

1) You can donate securely on-line. Here is the URL to the National Multiple Sclerosis web site where you can pledge. It’s probably the easiest way to donate since you can do it any time of the day and it’s very convenient.

On the bottom of the thermometer fund-raising meter, there is a link that says “Donate to Participant!”. Click it to make a donation.

2) You can donate by getting a check to me personally before Thursday the 26st of June and make the check out to the ‘National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Utah Chapter’.

The last few years I have been able to take some pictures of the rides and put them on my web site and I hope to do it again this year. You can see pictures from past rides here:

Big thanks to everyone who has helped in the past and those who help out this year. One last thing - if all you can do is drop a line and say hi, I’d love to hear from you and catch up!!!!!

Ok everyone, have a great week!

  1. I’m proud of what you’re doing. 150 Miles is quite the distance, hopefully most of it is downhill. Good luck and keep up the great work.
