Some of you may recall that I had hoped to put together an Ascension Team for the 2010 MS-150.  Although that didn't pan out, I am indeed planning to ride in the event on June 26th & 27th.  My fundraising goal this year is $500, all of which goes to the National MS Society.  All event costs come from my registration fee and corporate sponsors.

Remember there is no cure for this devastating disease and most of us probably know someone afflicted with it.   These are tough economic time but I hope you can all dig up a little something (spare change from the couch cushions, maybe that jar of coins on top of the fridge) for such a great cause.   It's very easy to donate online with a credit card using the link below:

Or if you prefer to send a donation, please make checks payable to the National MS Society and mail to: National MS Society Rhode Island Chapter, 205 Hallene Rd. Suite 209 Warwick, RI 02886. Please make sure to include my name and Bike MS with your donation!

The 150 mile round-trip (lots of scenic back roads) between Narragansett High School and Connecticut College in New London is perfect for my super-stylish, oh-so-cool recumbent bike.  If past years are any guide, I'll be the only geek out of three hundred riders with such an unconventional conveyance.  Of course at the end of the day I'll also still be able to walk and sit like a normal person!

Please give if you can and accept my sincere thanks for your support,

Paul
