I signed up with Team Fatty to do the Livestrong Challenge 100 Mile Ride in Philadelphia last December. Since then, I’ve put in around 3000 miles in ice, rain, and sun. I’ve raised money for cancer prevention and research, and to support survivors and their families. And I’ve been watching the calendar, anticipating the event. Sunday’s the day, we’re here.

Bag’s packed, clothing’s checked in and checked off. Brought the good socks, and they’re clean. Tool kit’s rolled up and in the bag, along with the Shot Bloks and GU Chomps. Cledus is tuned, stripped of commuter luxuries, and dialed in. Naked Juices are in the fridge, waiting to hop into a cold bag with some freezer packs. DZ Nuts? Oh yeah, I got ‘em covered.

A special thanks goes out to all of you that gave generously to sponsor my participation. I’ll have a ride report and maybe some pics when I return.

I am McLovin.
