I'm actually thinking of doing this year...I can't really afford to do the AIDS Lifecycle. It's become financially and a logistical impossibility for me. I did the Wine to Waves back in 1985 with Connie Carpenter and Davis Phinney. It was great because it was the first really long ride I'd ever been on. Davis and Connie along with some other Pros were totally approachable and I really discovered my love for cycling and California in general. I had been one year clean & sober and It was an awesome reward to myself and a tribute to my Sister who has since passed on from MS. I would love to do this for my nieces in memory of Her and also to renew my love of cycling. The minimum fund raising is considerably less than the AIDS Ride which would be easier to do.
