Can you believe it? I can't! Months of planning, weeks of networking and lining up sponsors and registered runners and riders, and we only have 2 days until we ROCK the RIDE and RUN to benefit LIVESTRONG! We have 20+ registered participants, and I know of almost double that, who are planning to register in person!
Balloons are being blown for the businesses participating, mechanics from Eastern Mountain Sport & Bicycle World are prepping their portable bike shops as I type this, and, hopefully, runners and riders are taking advantage of today's sunny weather to train and get their gear in order for Sunday.
Of course, there is still time to register - for my friends who live abroad and cannot attend in-person, you can always ROCK the RIDE & RUN virtually at home - and kids can still register for $10 for the Children's Ride to the park and back! http://www.active.com/running/pound-ridge-ny/rock-the-ride-and-run-benefiting-livestrong-2010
And, please don't forget the raffle - where you can win a signed jersey by Lance Armstrong (it's Astana - even more of a conversation piece - thanks to John Korioth) and a Giant MTB+Giro Transfer helment (thanks to Bicycle World) or one of many other prizes, including over $750-worth of interior decorating from Arbitare, gift certificates from a number of bicycle & outdoor shops, Albano Electric, etc! For every $10 you donate to my Austin LIVESTRONG Challenge account, you get one ticket! (So, $20=2 tickets, $30=3 tickets, etc... )
Spread the word, spread the love, and let's KICK CANCER ON SUNDAY!

I'm all about free speech, etc, but I have to ask that comments are respectful of other readers, the fact that I, and many of us who follow this blog, support LIVESTRONG, and that you reserve Lance or LIVESTRONG bashing for another forum. As of right now, I'm still allowing Anonymous postings, however, that may not be the case in the future. Thanks!
