Welcome to my fundraising page for the Action Cycling 200. I need to raise $500 in order to participate. All donations go directly to researching an AIDS vaccine, plus they are tax deductable.

Starting in Atlanta and covering 200 miles in two days, this ride is by far the longest and most ambitious physical feat I've ever signed up for. Plus, it marks the first part of my summer "triathlon" that I have set as a goal for myself.

The second part will be a yet-to-be-named Olympic length triathlon. Training for this ride will transfer directly over to the biking portion of the triathlon. I'll still need to get some practice with the swimming and running. But that brings me to part three.

The final stage of my triathlon will be the Peachtree Road Race, held on July 4th here in Atlanta. I'm not looking to finish top in my class or anything, but it will be the first 10k I've ever run.

So, please make a donation, help find a vaccine for HIV/AIDS, and help me finish the first leg of my summer journey.
