Thoreau, bikes and fear

Today's post is dedicated to the memory of the late Brett Whittaker (RIP) and our dedicated team of amateur cyclists and crew who have been training and fund raising and getting out of our fearful, comfort zones to raise money for cancer research.
None of us have fundraising or long distance cycling experience. Yet, tomorrow we will embark on a 200km cycle trek, through what looks like quite a bit of rain. Even if we dont make the whole course, we know that we have raised (so far) $17K and have become a little bit better in so many ways.



"What you get 
by achieving your goals 
is not as important as 
what you become 
by achieving your goals."
Thoreau
