Title: FLBentrider rides for Cancer Research!
Post by: FLBentRider on August 04, 2012, 01:50:33 PM
As you may know I do a lot of cycling. I have covered more than 2100 miles this year commuting to work.

The last 2 years I participated in the Dolphins Cycling Challenge.

The first year, I rode 75 miles and raised $750.00

Last year I am "kicked it up a notch" - I signed up for 175 miles - 100 miles on 11/5 and 75 on 11/6. The wind was a (*^* on 11/5 but I got through it.

I have to raise $1200.00 this year.

We are raising money for cancer research - to benefit the University of Miami Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center.


The first year we raised a total of US$533,106.00

Last year we raised US$1,070,000.00

I would appreciate it if you could donate to this cause. You can donate online by clicking the link below, or if you would prefer to mail a check, PM me and I can send you a link to the form.

On the sign up site, is that the gross amount or per mile amount?

Thanks, Brad

Gross, it is just a flat donation amount. There is no "per mile" option.

What is the cutoff date for donating?  I'm planning to be able to help out, but timing has to work.

I'm sorry, every time I've been seeing the light at the end of the financial tunnel, its turned out to be a friggin' freight train comin' at me around 200 mph.  One of these times I will be able to make good on the posts and contribute...I promise.

Lets all do-a-dollar or two. Randy only needs a few hundred dollars to meet his goal and if we all pitched in a dollar we  could help him meet his goal.
