get in gear!

ak is riding in the tour de cure, a sponsored ride to raise money for the american diabetes association. diabetes affects 20 million americans; the most significant to me is my dad, diagnosed at the age of 8.
i’ve donated, and i’m asking you to do the same here. it’s a good cause and every little bit counts, skip sbux for a day and contribute your coffee money. it’s enough that you can feel good about yourself without hopping on a bike and sweating your guts out.
ak, thanks for riding for both of our dads!

my sister (‘vahl’) on LJ is diabetic, so i’m happy to give to the ada. it’s not much, but it’ll get a step closer to the goal (plus my employer matches too!)
Thank you Sarah for the donation and the plug! And thanks bloggers for your support!
dave: thanks for the donation! as you know, it’s a great cause! ak and i appreciate it.
ak: you’re very welcome! thanks for sweating so i don’t have to!
