Beer, Bikes and Bros
Despite swearing off of charity fundraising rides, I’ve gone ahead and registered for another one. The one-day Austin Community Ride on August 27 benefits www.1400Miles.com, which is “Probing the Conversation on Prostate Health.” Did you know that Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in men? A Dude Abikes didn’t know that or the fact that it’s also fairly treatable if caught early, but he does now, and he knows a good cause when he hears one. So I figured why the hell not go for a 60-mile ride in the Hill Country in the heat of a Texas summer to try to raise some money? As long as I’m riding a century every week, all those miles and all that blood, sweat and tears ought to mean something. So I’ll attempt 60 miles and hope to raise a modest $600.
