Tour to Tanglewood

In Winston Salem, there is a great opportunity to support research for Multiple Sclerosis in a biking fund raiser. Ben has done this for five or six years, always wanting me to join. This was the first year I was up to trying. I can’t believe it, but together we raised just over $1000! Can you believe it?! We did many training rides leading up to the big ride, finding some new places to ride along the way. In the end, I had to take the 22 mile option because I just couldn’t ride 45 miles in one day yet. Here are some pictures from our ride. Did I mention that is was pretty cold and rainy that day? Maybe next year will be dry. :) Thank you so very much to all the friends and family members who were able to support us in this event.

    Congratulations to you both for your respective rides. I did the main routes both Saturday and Sunday. It was a bit wet on Saturday, but it’s for a great cause. Hopefully we’ll have nicer weather next year.
