This summer I'll cycle in the California Death Ride - Tour of the California Alps. I’ll be riding in memory of my mother, Claire L’Italien (multiple myeloma) and in honor of my cousin Connie (B-cell lymphoma). It will be one day of pure pain, taking me over 5 mountain passes, 129 miles, 15,000 feet of climbing, and innumerable heartache. I'll be riding to help raise funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. These funds help to provide services, education, and to support important research.

1,275 miles
I commute from home to train; train to work; and back. 1,275 miles is how many miles I've put on my commuting bike this past year (subtract 1.5 month for only putting the odometer on the bike Mid-February, one month recovery from surgery, and another two weeks for vacation taken = 1,275 commuting miles in 9 months or 142 miles/month which doesn't seem like a whole hell of a lot).
