Biking the Country

Hello ya'll!!

This summer I am embarking on a fantastic adventure. 

I am going to bike the United States!!!!!

Yes, you read that correctly! I am going to pedal roughly 3,785miles from Yorktown, VA to San Francisco, CA. I am so excited about this journey, but I am even more excited to be doing it to raise awareness for Multiple Sclerosis.

The group I will be biking with is Bike the US for MS.

I am sincerely looking forward to this challenging ride and part of my duties, as a cyclist is to raise $1/mile that I'll be biking, so I need to raise around $3,800. I love this organization and it’s cause. This ride and group is near and dear to my heart, so I have upped my goal to $5,000.

Any and EVERY donation is greatly appreciated, but if you want some interesting facts and figures:
     ·    100 people donating 1 cent per mile ($38) will raise $3800
     ·    50 people donating 2 cents per mile ($76) will raise $3800
But remember NO donation is too small! This money is going to help out some amazing people and make their lives easier. 

If you are able to support me in reaching this goal you can make your tax-deductible donations using one of the following methods:

 1.    Write a check payable to Bike the US for MS and put my name (Lauren Boling) in the check memo line.  Mail the check to the address below.  Once the check is received by the organization, they will post the donation to this website. 

Bike the US for MS
PO Box 10001
Blacksburg, VA 24062

2.  Donate On-line using a credit card by clicking the orange DONATE button located at the top of my cyclist page (http://www.biketheusforms.org/cyclists/detail.asp?CID=396). Be sure to select Lauren Boling as the cyclist you are supporting.
