This year I am going to ride the MS 150 bike ride. This ride has been around for a long time here in N.C. (on the coast, nice flat ride). This year it is pretty special because its the first chance I have had to ride it since a good friend was diagnosed with MS. Many of you know the person but I am not going to use their name here without permission - but I am riding to raise money with this person in mind. I am going to do 100 miles the first day and 75 the second day on Sept. 11, and 12.
I hope those who read this will make a pledge - not for me, but for those like my friend who have to live with the pain, the motor and mobility problems, the discomfort, and the fear of what's next.
When you go to the page, enter my name as David Mason in North Carolina, not 'Dave'. By the way, their ASP-generated website really blows - sorry.
