Hello Everyone!
It's your humble blogger reporting from Baltimore, MD, land of crabcakes, Orioles and the start of an eight day, 700 mile bike ride called Key-To-Keys which benefits The Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults. Some of you are asking (well at least one of you) how did I get involved with this organization? One of my Facebook friends (who for the life of me I can't remenber) sent me a link to this ride last October asking me to check it out. I looked it over and thought to myself, "Why not?" So I filled out the application (yes, an application), went through the interview (yes there was a 45 minute phone interview), was accepted (WOOHOO!!) learned I had to raise at least $4,500 (as of this this writing, I'm just a smidge under $7,000) and bingo, bango, bongo, here I am! :)
I'm excited, nervous, anixous and a bunch of other emotions right now. I hope I am adequately able to express my impressions of the journey we are about to embark upon. I hope you'll join me on this adventure via this blog. The fun begins tomorrow morning at 6:45 AM EDT. Welcome! :)
On your left,
Gary
