As we all know, Team Leapfrog was started with a leap of faith; faith "I" could ride, faith "I" could get others to join me, faith "we" could raise a lot of money for MS research and faith "we" could make a difference. Notice how my leap of faith morphed from "I" to "we"...:)
Well, I did ride, and many many others rode with me! We did raise a lot of money last year and I know "WE" made a difference! Whenever I mention riding in the Bike To The Bay more times than not, I hear "my mom has MS" or "my best friend has MS..."
That got me thinking... I said I was riding for all those who have MS, especially those who can't ride; and until the day I no longer can, I intend to keep my promise.
So here's what I plan to do... Whenever I run into someone who says they have a friend or loved one with MS, I'll let them know I want to ride for THEM. If someone makes a donation I will put their loved one's name on my jersey in permanent marker and ride for them, and I plan to take them with me across the finish line. I will also encourage the rest of Team Leapfrog to do this as well; after all, this is why we're riding!
Please let me know if you have someone you want me to ride for and give me one more reason to ride:)

My goal is 30,000.00 and I know WE can do it!
Have a great weekend!!
