2 Days...140 Miles...1 Cause

My son, Dan, is a long distance bicycle rider. On any given sunny day, you’d find him out riding 25-50 miles. It turns out, these short rides were just training rides to get him ready for the really “big one”, the 9th annual “Ride for the Feast 2011"! On May 14 and 15, 2011, Dan and 173 other riders pedaled 140 miles from Ocean City to downtown Baltimore to raise money for The Movable Feast. The Feast provides over 2000 nutritious meals every day for homebound Marylanders living with HIV/Aids, breast cancer, and other life-threatening conditions. Last year, they provided 720K meals to folks who were too sick to make a good meal for themselves. So far, the riders and staff have surpassed their goal of $250K by raising $315K to keep the Feast feeding those who most need it.

Impressed yet? If you are, this amazing charity still needs you to add a little more love to help it keep serving? Log on to their site: www.mfeast.org to learn more and to donate.

To get your 140 Miles memento: Head over to the College at the jct. of Rte 50 & 213S (106 miles from OC or 42 miles from Balto.). Drive around until you find lot "B", across from the circle. Find the 1st light pole. Gently pick it up to get your prize. Conserve your energy for the rest of your ride to the beach or back home.

Thanks, Dan, I’m really proud of you.
Love, Mom
