This should be doable, as the route is the same as it has been the previous 3 years.  I have been training, making sure to include hill climbing in my various rides (details on those rides in upcoming posts).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My fundraising goal is $1200.  As in the past, I will donate money myself that is based on how much others contribute to my ride.  I will match every dollar that people give, up to a maximum of $2500.  So if donations from others reach twice my goal, that will all get matched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ride is coming up in just 2.5 weeks, and I&#8217;ve got more training to do yet.  If you are interested in donating, you can do so at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pledgereg.com\/3056\/SeanKinlin\">my fundraising page here<\/a>, or contact me about sending a check if that is preferred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay tuned for tales of training!
