I know I don't have to "sell" you on the idea of Habitat for Humanity and the importance of its mission of providing safe, decent, affordable housing. And I also don't have to persuade you to give generously. You've proven - year after year - that you're willing to support this ride and this organization, raising over $120,000 for my last 17 rides, including a record setting $16,875 last year.  I'm going to take another leap of faith and suggest a goal of $18,000 for my 18th Habitat 500 ride this summer. 

We'll be in-person for the ride for the first time since 2019, although the "organized" ride will be only three days - July 15 to 17 in the Fergus Falls area. But in the four days prior to that, I'll be riding with Habitat friends in Minnesota to make sure I'll keep up my part of the bargain: 500 miles in 7 days. Every time the sun gets hot, or the wind gets strong, or the hill gets steep, I think of my commitment to you, my supporters, and how you've never failed me. We're a great team!
