2006 Gateway MS-150

On September 8th I’ll be driving 2 hours into to the middle of Missouri for the 2006 Gateway MS-150 bike ride. This two-day ride benefits the National Multiple Sclerosis Society and most people do 75 miles each day for 150 miles total, hence the name. If I’m feeling particularly crazy (it’s been known to happen), I can opt for the century route each day for a full 200 miles.

Please consider supporting me and this cause with a tax-deductible donation to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.

I’ve been riding very differently this year logging shorter rides, but a few more than last year, so I’m not sure how it will go. I feel pretty strong for the majority of those rides pedaling aggressively, but the longer they get the more I wear out. I’ll have to pace myself, or just draft all day (which isn’t very different from my average ride, thanks hans).
