Greetings, all you amoazing peeps!
I have been getting out almost every day to reach my 600-mile goal and am still on track. The weather, although cooler, has been great for riding. Our goal is to help the kids live their life instead of fighting for it. When getting the miles is hard, I think about the battle each of these kids faces on a daily basis. Sending them all the biggest hugs and healing vibes I can muster as I ride. Sending you all the best for supporting us in this effort. I promise to send all the ride stats from all 17,000 riders and their supporters in October. We have raised millions! Thank you for doing your part. Would love to reach that $3200 mark...just $6 shy. Do you know a friend who wants to hlp fight cancer for the price of a cup of coffee...Send them the link.
Peace,
Karl

Greetings All,
The ride was beautiful this am, and I wanted to share it with you! We have been doing some amazing work together. I have ridden 378 miles, so I am on track to reach that goal. More importantly, we are just $6 shy of 0f $3200. We crushed the original goal of $2500. Nationally, my fellow riders and their supporters have raised millions! So thank you! Keep telling your friend and let's see how much we can raise. Sending all of you hugs! Peace.
Be well,
Karl
Greetings all,
This am I passed the halfway point on my 600-mile challenge. I am still on pace to make it to 600 miles on time. Thank you for all of your support. Peace
Y'all amazing. You keep giving! We just passed $3K ! Thank you! I say we keep going. Ya know...if we just raise $553 more dollars we will reach the $20K mark for the eight years I have taken part in this ride. Good juju and hugs to each and every one of you! Sending that same healing energy and support to the kids and the tenacity to the researchers who are doing the work to find treatments and cures! YOU ROCK! Sharing a little of the beauty I saw today on my morning ride. 239 miles down! 361miles left to go.
The first goal is met! BUT you can’t raise too much money for cancer research. Let's take it to 3K! Still 12 hours to go that all online donations are matched.
This morning's ride pushed me over 200 miles logged since September 1. AND we are just $217 short of the $2500 goal!!! We are crushing it! Thank you for all the support! Hugs to all of you!
It was a bit chilly, too. Had to pull out the full-fingered gloves to fend off the 47-degree temps
What is Kick Cancer's Butt Day? It is the day when all online donations are matched up to $1.5 million...like those NPR fund drives>. So if you know someone who would like to donate to the cause, on Wednesday, September 10, their money will go twice as far. Be sure to send them the link! Thank you!

Greetings All,
Mason, the inspiration behind Team Mason, is on the road to recovery. I just heard from his dad that a recent surgery was successful, and he is on the long road to healing. If you have a moment, send him some healing juju. Thanks to all of you for helping Mason and his family beat cancer. Peace!
The really great news is we have broken $1900. That is great! Please share the links with your friends and workplaces.. Check to see if they will match your donation. Let me know how I can help. Bonus info! If we add $2000 to the current totals, we will break $20,000 combined for the 8 years I have been riding.
Hugs to all of you!
The riding weather has been perfect fro training rides.
