Re: "Curt's Ride" for the American Cancer Society

Cynette, Don, Jane and all the other well-wishers-

Thank you very much for your support. For everyone that helped - whether it may have been with financial donations, logistical assistance, moral support, encouragement, or anything else - all of your efforts were noticed and appreciated. There is a lot more in the notes I wrote during the ride, but here I will just say that it was the most interesting, enlightening, meaningful, and fun 650 miles (although my bike odometer says it was 740 miles, but that is another story) that I have ever ridden.

I exceeded my funding goals, and the complete team hit the 95% point for overall team fund-raising on the last day of actual riding. We will be keeping the event site on the American Cancer Society event pages open for a while more. So if anyone would still like to make a contribution and help with our support of the ACS programs, it would be gratefully appreciated.

Again, to everyone that did help with our adventure, thank you!

-dave
