The American Diabetes Association Tour De Cure is set to take place May 1st and 2nd for the Eastern North Carolina Tour.
I volunteered with the Tour in 2002 as part of the Central Carolina Helping Hams, using my car as a SAG (support and gear) vehicle. It was a blast getting out and helping the cause. Made me wish I rode it.
This year, I’m contemplating the crazy thought of riding in the Tour, even though I haven’t touched my bike in months, if not years. It would take a lot of effort to put myself together for two days of riding, 160 miles total. At least its all downhill.
I’ve got less than two months to get in riding shape. Can I do it?
There’s a few of the trilug bikers that have talked about doing the MS 150 this year. What about joining us for that instead? (Personally, I’d prefer to do something for the American Cancer Society, because of my family history, but they’re all good causes.)
Great. When does the MS 150 take place? Do I actually have some time to get into shape for that one?
