Anders Vieaux

Bike: 12" Specialized

Anders was so excited to earn his new "big boy bike" by collecting "good boy stickers" for each time he got ready in the morning, had no time outs during the day, ate dinner at night, and went to bed. Now he loves showing off his fancy red bike and matching helmet.

Betsy Ingram

Bike: Specialized Dolce

"When I got the news that my sister-in-law's cancer had returned after 6 months in remission I signed up for Team In Training for the Leukemia/Lymphoma Society. I had never ridden a road bike before in my life. The thought of riding 100 miles was overwhelming, but I decided that if my sister-in-law would continue her fight against cancer, I would ride. I had a hybrid mountain bike that I tried using for the first few training sessions and it was a nightmare. I walked into Alameda Bicycle and met a very friendly, caring and supportive lady. I told her what I was doing and she walked me through the process of buying my first road bike. On November 14th, 2009, I road 103 miles to complete my first century ride and I raised $4,000.00 for cancer research. I have now joined Bike Alameda, I ride every weekend, and I am mentoring for TNT for the Most Beautiful Ride in Tahoe in June. I know I would not have been able to do this without you, Thank-you Alameda Bikes!"
