MS Bike Ride

I am trying to raise money for the MS Society through a two day, 160 mile, bike ride but need your help.  Last year we raised alomst $100,000.  I want to do my part this year and ride the full 160 miles.  I need your help in raising at least the minimum $400.

Followng is specific information about the event.  Clearly it is no easy task I am taking on but this is a great cause.  Please be generous and I will do my part:-)

Thanks for your help.
