Hello everyone who is not on Facebook at this moment. The above mass of letters and numbers is one of the webpages to see how Kevin and I our doing in the fund raising department. So far I am at $200 or 6% of my target number.

If you look at the page it will allow you to see other members of the team. Fred is riding at the same time. I don't think he is on his little brothers team but still it will be great to see old people riding (he never reads the blog so no tattling on me).

We are sharing a room the night of the ride and the newbie gets the floor which will be better than not getting sleep while others decide to party instead of rest up.

Please have a looksie and maybe one day some of you Easterners can come out and ride with us.

I will try to update my riding experiences on the blog : today I rode up a hill then down a hill then up a hill then down a hill then up a hill then I went home. I didn't die. It was a good day.

More to come.

You may remember there are 6 kids, in order of age: Mark, Colleen, Paul, David, Kathleen & Kevin. Hearing it listed like that reminds me of being called for dinner. :) Mom and Dad (Maureen and Al) are both in good health and living in that big house you remember in Ancaster. The house and property itself would look very different to many of you as my Dad's projects have really transformed the place. There are no more big willow trees (and no more treehouse!) :( ...
