Donate to Ride to the Light!

OMG LIFE IS CRAZY! Also, hi! I've got lots of stuff to update y'all on, but it's going to have to wait until next week, because tomorrow I'm leaving for sunny Portland, to ride with some other SUPER AWESOME FOLK for Ride to the Light: Three Sanctuary Century! That's right, I'm going to ride my bike 100 miles IN ONE DAY! I've been training like crazy to kick some ass on the road up there and I can't wait!

I'm gonna post my blog entry from Vegansaurus here:

I know there must be at least a couple people here who like animals and bikes, right? (I mean, this IS commie liberal West Coast vegan cupcake heaven awesome San Francisco, CA.) But anyway, I’m hoping that if you do, you will support Ride to the Light, which is right around the corner!

The Ride to the Light is an annual 100-mile bike ride (a “century” in cycling terminology) to benefit Lighthouse Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary, Out to Pasture Sanctuary, and Project Hope Sanctuary. Some fearless folks from PDX started it in 2009, and that ride raised over $10,000. We’re hoping to smash that record this year by raising $15,000.

The ride takes place on Saturday, Sept. 25. We’ll be leaving from the IDA office in Portland and riding to Out to Pasture in Estacada, Ore., then on to Lighthouse in Scio, Ore. Project Hope is in Mississippi, so we won’t be making a stop there, but they’ll be with us in spirit.

Come along for the ride, or make a donation and help us reach (or even better, exceed) our goal for these three very worthy causes. People from all over (including the Bay Area! Me! Me!) are coming on this fantastic voyage, and we’d really appreciate your support! Any donation is much appreciated and we’d love to see your name on the donation page.

Please also check out our Facebook fan page to find out more about the ride. We’ve got a blog as well! Here’s a video of last year’s ride, too!

We're miserably short of our goal, so wouldn't you please consider kicking us some cash? Even $5, even $1 would help! If I can do it, you can do it!

I'll be back next with some news about life, upcoming events, and a SIGNIFICANT CAREER CHANGE on my horizon, which I hope you'll be excited about (if you don't know already). Let's just say that I am stoked about life right now and things are great!

Portland, ho!
