It's official

I'm in. I've registered, gotten my packet of information, and called today for my reservations at the LaSalle Manor in Plano, IL. I'm going to be a part of Emmaus Ministries' Endurance Ride 2007.

For more information about Emmaus Ministries, please visit www.streets.org.

You can find more information about the Endurance Ride fundraiser at www.streets.org/enduranceride.html.

Check back often to hear about my training goals and progress.

• Goal #1 to be accomplished by May 1, 2007 is to purchase a bike rack for my car so I can transport it to ride in several different locations for training (and more importantly, to and from the fundraiser!).

• Goal #2 is to begin riding as soon as possible. I should already be doing this, but um, snow tends to be a de-motivator for bicycling!!
