Why I should have my head examined

IIt’s that time of year again - summertime in Phoenix – with the mercury on the rise and triple digit temperatures here to say "howdy".


And what, you might ask, could be more fun than weather hot enough to fry an egg on a sidewalk?


I know! How about a 67 mile mountain bike race?! In August!!


Sound like a bad idea? Of course it does -and- here's how you can help:


Your dollar a mile pledge helps me fulfill my masochistic fantasy. And if that doesn’t do it for you...


The money actually goes to such charitable organization as Toys for Tots or Marine Relief Charity, so there's that, if altruism
 is your gig.

Want to know more? Of course you do!

Respond to this post with a "yes" comment below (and email if I ain't got it!) and I'll get back to you with all the pertinent info.

Til then, mi compadres!

P.S. ALREADY GOT MY FIRST RESPONSE! (below)


“You gotta be NUTS!!!I wouldn't try 67 miles in the spring or fall, let alone August.I do appreciate the organizations you are raising money for...sooo,Maverick Plumbing will challenge ALL to $2.00 a mile to help in yourquest to fulfill your "masochistic fantasy" and help out the Kids andMarines!


Best of luck

    Yeah,no. Remember the guys that thought it was a good idea to take their doggie on a little hike up Camel Back. Think inside the box. Lower, slower, weaker. The sun does shine on a sleeping dogs' ass, if he points it in the right direction.
