I am an aspiring professional cyclist. I race and ride: road, track, and cyclocross. I ride for NOW-MS Society Women's Elite Team! I have been racing/riding for approximately 5 years, and hope that I will be able to take this far, and eventually become a professional rider.

MS Ride

Its finally here.  The Southern California MS ride takes place this weekend.  It is a two day event, the first day being 100 miles and the second being 60.  As a team the NOW-MS Society raised money for the MS Society in order to help rid the world of Multiple Schlorosis. 

I feel so blessed to be able to take part in such an event, and to have been able to help better lives by raising money, in search of a cure.  This ride is for all those who donated to this cause, and even more so for the people who are currently living with MS. 

It is really touching when I have talked to those affected by this disease, either from those who have it themselves, or people who know or are related to individuals with this disease.  I am really glad that I can contribute to the efforts to find a cure, even if in the long run it isn't by a large amount.  But as has been said several times, Every little bit counts.
