I am raising money for Love Live Local, an organization that is vital to the health and well-being of Cape Cod's local economy and sense of place. I am going to try to ride a bike something like 68 miles all at once and see if I can do it without dying! If you are able to support my efforts, there is no amount too small. I'd love to do some successful fundraising and I appreciate your support!
