Default 100 mile Tour De Cure for Diabetes

Hey guys, I'm riding in the Tour De Cure 100 miler for Diabetes in June. If you guys have a few free minutes and a few extra bucks, would you mind sponsoring me? Also, those of you with diabetes or friends with diabetes, please list names below, I'm planning on scribbling the names of everyone I know with Diabetes on my jersey. Thanks!

Me - Diagnosed w/Type-II back in 2005. I manage it with diet (barely) and exercise (also, barely, but, between the two, I do OK)

When/where is it? I may sign myself up. 2+ months to get spun up for a century: Can do EASY!

It's out in Reston, VA June 20th. You should be able to navigate to a sign-up page from that link I posted. I used to have a spare bike I'd have been happy to lend you but I gave it to another guy who wanted to get into cycling.

S'qool. I got a rig. It's a sorta hybrid. F/S w/street tires. Padded Bar-endz. Lights. Padded seat for x-tra long rides. Me an a camelbak are good for about 40 miles. I'll need a 2nd camelbak, at least, for a century. Got the dork-hat, too, to protect my dome! I saw the link to register.

You ridin solo, or you got a team?

I get e-conjugal cyber-visits, right?!?!?!?!?
