I'm back and excited to ride again in this years Agony Ride! I'm getting ready to pedal through the pain, sweat through the struggle, and laugh through the lactic acid! It's not just a ride, it's a journey of sheer AGONY and my 5th time participating in this monstrosity of an event. What can I say though, I love the Ranch.
I'm asking YOU to join me on this wild ride by sponsoring my Agony Ride adventure. Every dollar, every cheer, and every word of encouragement will fuel my determination and make a real difference in the lives of those who need it most. Plus, you'll get the satisfaction of knowing you're part of something truly special. Please consider sponsoring me! I need all the help that I can get so I'm not just spinning my wheels! You can do a flat pledge or if you are feeling adventurous, make a pledge for each mile that I peddle! My goal is to beat last year's milage of 257 miles... I don't know if 300 miles is within my ability but I would love to get there... maybe one day... maybe this year... Haha!
That said, every dollar raised will go toward supporting these young people, teaching them life skills and showing them that following Christ is the greatest treasure in life. Every dollar helps! Thank you in advance for your support!
