Riding my bike has been such a major part of maintaining my physical and mental fitness over the last year, and the work that Bikes Not Bombs has done to promote increased ridership, and their mission to use bicycles to drive social justice are deeply important to me. They're my local bike shop, and the first place I think of when I need something for my bike. Last year, during the remote rides, I committed to riding 100 miles in the week. I'd only been biking again for a few months at that point, and it was a huge accomplishment for me, especially since I rode 40 miles in one day, my longest ride ever. This year it's back to an in-person, single day ride event and, I'm obsessed with the number 5. The goal is $500 raised, for a 50 mile ride. If you can toss $5 in to sponsor me for this ride, I'd deeply appreciate it!
