There is no mountain bike portion of the tour this year so our team is participating in the road tour. There is a $30 entrance fee and they ask you to raise at least $100 in donations (probably just enough to cover insurance etc)

Date: Sunday June 6, 2004
Place: Windsor, CT
Time: morning (specific start varies depending on route chosen)

routes: 10, 25, 50, 75 or 100 miles

to sign up, pm me or go to www.ctnmss.org

team name: ridemonkeydotcom

THANKS EVERYONE!

This is going to be a fun event for a great cause! I'm psyched about it.

You guys rock!!!!

My mother has MS so it's definately a personal cause for me. Not sure that I can go (I have a school committment that weekend) I will have to see if I can juggle somethings around. If I can't make it, I will have to donate to your ride!

My sister has MS too, so we are happy to support the cause. It's a family event....MBC and I ride (and MMcG this year too), and our moms volunteer at the finish line.

Ditto, my sister's my hero. Found out she had MS and decided to go to law school. Where can I send a donation?

I won't be able to make the ride, other plans already that weekend. I would however be happy to pledge a few $$ for monkeys who are riding.

MBC do the pledges go to our "team" or do we have to ask for pledges as individuals?

Come on Monkeys step up and pitch in for a great cause.

pledges go to individuals but there are team awards for the sum total. with only 3 members though, we don't really stand a chance.

Excellent! My wife Cathy and I are doing the MA version of the ride this year. It will be my 1st time but she has done a couple of them before. We are signed up for the century on Saturday and the 75 miler on Sunday, ending in P-town on the Cape. I actually need to get to work fundraising as it's coming up quickly, D'Oh!

I'm decking out our mountain tandem as a road TT rig for the event (drop bars w/ aero bars, 26x1.0 100PSI tires, 9spd STI w/ a 58 tooth big ring up front). Our goal is to win
