Livestrong Day 50 Mile Ride Update



Livestrong Day 50 Mile Ride

We now have a page on the Livestrong Day site. If you plan to attend, please register so we can plan for the number of people attending. Again, there is no fee or cost to ride, but registering will allow us to know if we need to coordinate and facilitate multiple paces and/or groups.

Also, on Monday the 28th I plan to ride the route just to make sure all of the intersection are clear. I've rode this route before, the roads are typical Michigan roads with minor, but clearly visible, potholes. The traffic volume is low and for the most part area drivers are respectful of riders.


Thank you all for your support! I look forward to riding with you.

What are YOU Doing on October 2nd?


October 2nd 1996 is the day Lance was diagnosed with stage 3 testicular cancer and began the fight of his life. This year on October 2, we celebrate LIVESTRONG Day. It’s the day members of our community celebrate the spirit of LIVESTRONG by organizing hundreds of events and raising awareness about the fight against cancer in communities across the globe.

LIVESTRONG Day is critically important this year – and we need you to step up and help. We’re making a major push to world leaders this fall, urging them to close the huge gap in global cancer funding. By joining an international wave of coordinated grassroots activity on LIVESTRONG Day you can make world leaders and the media sit up and pay attention to this disease while educating your own community about the fight against cancer.

Ride your road, mountain or tri bike with me for 50 miles to help increase awareness of cancer in support of the Lance Armstrong Foundation. There is no cost to ride this event, it is simply a gathering of like minded people out for a ride; just wear something yellow.

We will meet at the Sleepy Hollow State Park in Clinton County at the beach parking lot and ride a scenic route around the area.

Sleepy Hollow State Park
7835 Price Rd
Laingsburg, MI 48848

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

I look forward to seeing you there.

**Plan to leave by 10am**
