First event til departure was a huge success...

More than 70 supporters came out to Eclipse Di Luna at Miami Circle last night to kick off the 2011 ATLtotheArctic trip. The great folks at Eclipse donated food, and we raised more than $1,000 for the Komen Foundation. We are looking forward to quite a few events in the months to come and will post them to this site. Hope you can join us . . .

While my sister, Kris, is recovering well, there are many more women that will benefit from the work of the Komen Foundation. We hope the awareness and funds that we raise will make a difference for some of these people.

Our lead rider this year will be Curt Coulombe, a friend of mine from the Adventure Riders meetup group. Curt is an experienced rider and is really enthusiastic about the challenge. Let's all give Curt lots of support.
Yes his bike is in fact Pink.
Stay tuned . . .

  1. OOhh!! I pink Triumph Tiger! Nice... But I know that GS in the background is NOT Pink... :)

    Great event last night. Enjoyed seeing you and everyone else that turned out. Loved talking with your mom! Wish I could go, but will cheer from the armchair again this year.

    Totally enthusiastic about another ride out with you this year. Keep us posted.
