“Hey Lori!! What a surprise to hear from you. I didn't realize you knew about my ride.. good thing for the internet. Thanks so much for your generous donation. For the past two years, my goal has been to cycle 1km for every $ donated and anyone who donated, get their special day with a shout out on my ride. I will try to ride 30-40 km a day, so hopefully the weather will cooperate. I hope life is treating you well and that you are enjoying your well earned summer break. Merci encore!”

“Thank you Dar and Wayne so much for your generous donation. I do so appreciate your words of encouragement. I bet you recognize some of the places that I have ridden. I'm glad you guys are using your bikes more this year....so much easier than on foot. These donations today are going to get me out of Mike's hair for a while (yes he has hair now...said he won't cut it until he is up and fully mobile....he may be a hippy by then ;)”

“Thank you so much for this generous donation, Jill. It's great to have family support. I will have to keep riding into September (and maybe even October) to keep my promise, but it is great when you can do something you love to do and help a good cause at the same time. It will keep me out of Mike's hair for a while. (yes, he currently has hair as he said he is not cutting it until he is up and mobile - he completely severed his quad tendon from his patella about 4 weeks ago...had surgery 3.5 weeks ago). Hope you are keeping well....and cool.”
