The plan is to raise money to support the programs & research of the Multiple Sclerosis Society by riding a bike from Busch Gardens in Tampa to Sea World in Orlando; spend the night at the Sheraton World Resort; and then ride back the next morning.

The success of an event like the MS 150 Bike Tour would simply not be possible without the amazing staff of volunteers. A cold Gatorade, a friendly smile, and some genuine encouragement goes a long way! Thank you to everyone who volunteered; espcially to Jenn (my favorite volunteer)!

It is amazing how good the fresh fruit at a bicyle rest stop tastes. And the Bubba Burgers we had for lunch were about the best Bubba Burgers I've ever had. And don't even get me started on the popsicles!

Seriously, nothing tastes better than anything after a hard bike ride.

With the help of two very fast female cyclists, I arrived in Orlando just before lunch. Seriously, these girls were fast!

(Note how few bikes there are).

It was another beautiful day and what better place to spend it than on my bike! I was a little worried that I'd be stiff and sore after riding yesterday, but thankfully I felt great.

Once again these two females were on fire! The entire group worked well together and riding with them was a pleasure (except for the last three excruciating miles into Busch Gardens where we averaged nearly 30mph and ended with a sprint finish). Not surprisingly, we were the first group done.

I met some interesting people, had a great ride, helped raise money to fight MS, and had a great time doing it. What a great way to spend a weekend!
