Betsy IngramBike: 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!" |
