Chris, Rider Rep Manager
“When the spirits are low, when the day appears dark, when work becomes monotonous, when hope hardly seems worth having, just mount a bicycle and go out for a spin down the road, without thought on anything but the ride you are taking.”
–Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr.
If you are reading this you are:
- Contemplating taking a 165-mile ‘spin down the road’ – for the first time;
- Contemplating taking a 165-mile ‘spin down the road’ – repeat performance;
- Completed your registration and are ready to take the ‘165-mile spin of your life’.
The SMART Ride is an incredible personal journey. For many, the challenge lies in the training for a two-day, 165-mile trek through the beautiful Florida Keys. For others, the challenge lies in the responsibility of raising $1250 for which every dollar benefits someone who is infected or affected by HIV/AIDS. But for ALL, the reward comes from standing at the AIDS Memorial in Key West after completing 165-miles and realizing — “I did it”.
The Rider Rep team is organized to help every registered rider realize his or her potential.
Over the months leading to our ride out on November 18, your Rider Rep can help you strategize your training, fundraising and most importantly – your motivation.
We are your mentor, your coach, and your cheerleader. We welcome questions, suggestions, stories, jokes, and tears of laughter and of pain.
Our goal is to take 400 individual voices whispering, “I did it” and turn it into a unified and celebratory battle cry of “We did it”!
See you in November,
Chris
