100 Miles of Nowhere

A month ago I signed up for The Fat Cyclist’s 100 Miles of Nowhere. Just like it says in the name, it’s riding a bike 100 miles to no where. Amazingly 420 other people also signed up to do it.

Today is the official day for the 100 Miles of Nowhere. I’ll be spending a good part of the day sitting on my bike trainer in the garage. Others around the country and world are doing the same thing in their garages, basements and other places.

Riding on a trainer for around 6 hours will be tough mentally and physically but it is nothing compared to what cancer patients endure. I’ll be using twitter to update how I’m doing.

Since part of the entry was a donation to the Livestrong Foundation, over $20,000 was raised to fight cancer. In addition many of us have signed up for a Livestrong Challenge to raise even more money.

I just signed up to do the Seattle Livestrong Challenge virtually. Go to my Livestrong donation page to donate to the cause.
