But not for me. I promised I would not turn this blog into a giant series of requests for donations, and I believe I've stuck by that promise. But I'd like to take one more opportunity, with only a month to go before my ride, to ask anyone who feels able to donate to Multiple Sclerosis on behalf of my ride, and all the people who can't ride. I've encountered two people in my personal life recently who both have the syndrome, and it's been really illuminating. It's not something only for kids and old people; it actually affects those of all ages but especially can be hard for those of us still in the prime of life. And, encouragingly, I've seen a lot of promising things recently about treatment options, including a cool new one where they do some outpatient brain surgery that has a 73% chance of removing all symptoms, forever. But these treatments, and researching and approving these treatments, are not cheap. I know not everyone is in a position to donate, but if you are and can, please do, at http://tinyurl.com/Adam Bikes. And thank you!
