As of August 10th, we have 10 registered riders! That's 40% of our goal of 25 riders, which more than doubles our participation from last year. Way to go!
As a registered rider, your next steps are to FUNDRAISE and TRAIN!!!
Training Tip #4:
It's been hot out, and 100 miles is a log way to ride a bike. So are 50 and 25 miles. BE PREPARED. Start practicing now with proper hydration and caloric intake during your rides. Sometimes Gatorade or an energy bar can upset an uninitiated stomach, so practice consuming what you intend to consume during your chosen ride on September 11. (We will have water, Gatorade and granola bars to hand out)
Fundraising Tip #4:
-Get back to your roots: Remember when hosting a car wash or bake sale was the fundraising method of choice for elementary schools and sports teams!? It's car wash season, and I can think of no better way to use up the honkin' zucchini from your garden than to make zucchini bread (or chocolate zucchini cake!).
-Are you a craftsman or artist? How about holding a sale benefiting Bpeace and your ride? Let your natural talents shine, or use the fundraiser as an incentive to try out a new craft.
