Gears for Good: September 2019

Doug and I joined Kim Philo's team to raise money for "Gears for Good," a charitable bike ride along the rail trail through West Virginia, Maryland and Washington DC. For three days we road with 37 other cyclists, enjoying beautiful weather and comradery. I took spill after just 10 minutes in the dark tunnel, going over the handlebars, which then dug into my thigh. But it wasn't serious and we continued on! This fabulous event raised about $20,000 for "Helping Hands," the HFA program that offers financial assistance to families with bleeding disorders in need. Thanks to all, especially Tom Knoezer, who organized the logistics!
