The Experience . . .

It is very difficult to describe what you experience when you participate in an event like this. Most first-time riders and volunteers describe it as life-changing. That may seem exaggerated to you, but to experience the friendship, the bonding, the uniting for a specific cause and the feeling that you are part of something much bigger cannot be anything but life-changing. It causes a dramatic shift in the way you think, in the way you see things and the way you treat other people.

There are a few rider journals that can be accessed by going to the "Message Boards" link. You can also look at pictures taken by riders by going to the "2006 Rider Links & Photos" link. These journals and pictures were taken by riders and volunteers that cared enough to document their version of the event and moved enough to want to share with others.

We do not produce glossy marketing materials to communicate our message. Our riders and volunteers are the ones who share the word about us and about these events. We believe that the experience is strong enough to make these same riders and volunteers return year after year and make these events so special.

Now the only question that remains is, "Do you want to share this experience ?"
