I NEED YOUR HELP

In just under two weeks I'm riding from Bar Harbor, MA to Boston, MA, in support of the Boston Cyclists Union as part of the Climate Ride. The BCU works not only for the safety of people on bikes in Boston, but also for safer streets for all throughout the Greater Boston area and beyond. We learn from others, and share what we learn. I'm getting closer to my goal of raising $2800 but I'm not there yet, and I can't do it without you. Maybe you don't ride, but you would if you felt safer - I don't have enough fingers and toes to count how many people have told me that. If you don't live in the Boston area, help us lead by example - it works! Thank You!

Earlier this summer - I decided to once again pedal my bike over 300 miles to benefit the Boston Cyclists Union, and to raise awareness of climate change.

I'd been waiting for the cacophony of early summer fundraising to die-down, only to find that I'm running out of time to meet my goal.

We've seen lots of great progress in the past year, but we've also seen some horrific deaths as well.

One of the things I like about the BCU is that it's also a resource for those in other cities looking to connect to bike advocacy organizations in other cities. We all work together to make the roads safer for all users.

Please consider donating to my Climate Ride effort - you might not live in Boston, but I'm willing to bet it'll benefit you too, someday!

UNITE!!

P.S. I am also aware that not everyone is in a position to donate. If you can't donate but want to help out, please SHARE this post - thanks!!

Make a Donation!

I'D TOTALLY STOP POSTING ABOUT IT - AND YELLING IN ALL CAPS. PLEASE FUNDS GO TO THE BOSTON CYCLISTS UNION - http://bostoncyclistsunion.org/ - they help make great stuff like this http://bostoncyclistsunion.org/wp-content/upLoads/2014/09/side-guards-infographic-1.pdf become a reality

...so if I've committed to raising $2800 by THIS Friday, September 12 and then ride from NYC to Washington, DC later this month, it must be for a cause that's important to me. Please support my Climate Ride to benefit the Boston Cyclists Union - I can't do it without you!!
