The third annual Cycle4Care event on Friday night benefiting the Cancer Community Center
was a success. University of New England's Finley Recreation Center in
Portland, Maine, housed at least 100 spinning bikes that were donated
by local businesses, along with all the
food and other services, to accommodate hundreds of riders from 4pm to
midnight. Dad and I survived our two hours, and my friend Ed Myers even
joined in donating his time and money. The trainers who lead each
hour's spinning session really kicked it up a notch this year. Wasn't
expecting that, but loved it. I now see how one could ride for four
hours taking up the Ultimate Challenge and raising $500. The first hour
was a killer warm-up, second hour we felt great, and I'm sure in the
third and fourth you'd hit your stride and pedal hard knowing it was the
last hour. Maybe next year! The great thing about this event is that
you can pedal hard or hardly pedal, so anyone can come ride in this fun
event.
Thank you, thank you, thank you to all the folks to who donated. It is truly appreciated and the Cancer Community Center couldn't exist without your help. Most importantly, the patrons wouldn't have free support during a life changing period.
There is still time left to make a donation, http://www.stayclassy.org/cancercommunitycenterwhitfox, as my fundraising page will remain open for a little while longer. And check back for more photos from the event.
