Tour de Cure '11


Had a great time at my 5th Tour de Cure.  This year I raised about $2,500 for the ADA.  About $1,500 plus another $1,000 in company matching funds.  I know wonderful generous people.  Because I raised over $1,000 I was obligated to ride my mountain bike for 75 miles.


Bartlesville Pedalers & Friends
Lori, Randy, Marsha, Sean, and Dan

In the middle of nowhere





I challenged Dan & Randy to climb the hill at Elwood Avenue.  A very steep hill and even worse after 68 miles.  This was NOT part of the course.

How far?  75.36 miles
How long?  5:12 riding time
How fast 14.5 mph (good for a mountain bike)
how many calories?  5002 (now I can eat anything I want for a day or so)
how high?  3701' of ascent


requested Jeremy.  hope you like it.
