A Word of Thanks!
Just wanted to thank my friend J. Niemoller for starting of my fundraising drive with a bang! You're awesome, thanks!
Day 1
Started off tonight with some basic housekeeping...got my Blog setup, my Fundraising Page setup, did some upkeep and maintenence on my bike, and then took a leisurely ride around the neighborhood to loosen up the muscles. Logged 2.1 miles, along a course of mixed hills and inclines. Didn't set a pace or log my average speed tonight, just trying to get back in the swing of things. Bike performed well, although I believe she needs a minor tune-up and perhaps a few minor parts replaced. We'll see how she handles over the next week and then determine if a trip to the cycle shop is warranted.
My goal will be to gradually increase my distance and pace as I go along.
Stay tuned...

46 Days and Counting...
This year I'm participating in the Ride to Remember in Washington, D.C.
On October 16th, I'll be riding my bike 31 miles in the Metric Half-Century Ride to help raise money for the National Law Enforcement Memorial.
I began my Law Enforcement career in 2003 and I decided it was high time I did something to help raise public awareness of the sacrifices that so many of my extended family members make on a daily basis. Since I love cycling, both on the job and off, I decided this was a great opportunity to get the word out and help support a great project, the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, D.C.
I'll be tracking my training progress over the next 46 days leading up to the Ride to Remember on October 16th, 2011. I hope to acknowledge and thank those that support this project here as well...I know we all love to see our names on the internet!
Please support me as I take a stand behind the brave men and women who put their lives on the line every day to protect the public. Law enforcement officers support us every day – and every 53 hours an officer makes the ultimate sacrifice for public safety. I am participating in the Law Enforcement Ride & Run to Remember to say thank you to my brothers and sisters in Blue.
