We’re almost there! My husband is riding in his first BIKE MS this weekend. He’s really jazzed about it and is really taking to heart that the pain, fatigue, exhaustion, heat sensitivity, and even bladder urgency that he will experience during and after his ride is just a small taste of what we MSers experience every day.
He’s SO CLOSE to his inaugural goal of $1000, but is now also offering up a challenge. On top of riding the already ambitious 100 miles over the course of two days, if we can help him raise $1250, he’ll ride a total of 125 miles. If we can get him to $1500, he’ll ride an insane 150 miles over the course of two days. On a bicycle.
Every single dollar truly makes a difference in advancing research and treatment options for us. He’s riding for each and every one of us. This is truly a ride of love.
Please consider helping him smash his goal by donating. You can do so by clicking here.
If for nothing else, do it for that fabulous beard.

Congratulations to Rusty for completing 150 grueling miles in the BIKE MS 2016 event. I followed his journey on Runtastic and on Facebook as well. Cat, the smile on your face at the end of the race when you posted a photo saying, “Look who I found!”…priceless. Rusty…one more time–I am very proud of you. Cat and Rusty, you are making a difference in the fight against MS…well done!
