This weekend is the BP MS 150, a 2-day bike ride from Houston to Austin. News reports just released that day one is canceled due to expected heavy rains. This extreme bike ride is in the efforts of raising money for research for the chronic disease, multiple sclerosis. Each rider needs to raise $500 in order to participate again next year. The bikers stop mid-way and camp out for a night of rest and finish the race on Sunday to Austin. Car rides bring the bikers back home after they finish.
I have several friends that are signed up for this big event and I'm excited they are riding for a good cause! What a fun, athletic way to do something extreme to support an important cause! I hope to ride next year in the event.
