You/ 5,000 generously donated dollars.
Me / 545 miles on a bike.
Us / An end to AIDS.

............................................................................................................................................

From June 1-7, 2008, I'm bicycling in AIDS/LifeCycle.

It's a 7-day, 545-mile bike ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles to make a world of difference in the lives of people living with HIV and AIDS.

Help me support the San Francisco AIDS Foundation by giving what you can.

We'll keep riding until AIDS and HIV are a thing of the past.

............................................................................................................................................

Those of you who have known me for as long as 25 years, or as short as 25 minutes, know what kind of challenge I have set myself up for here.

Most of you are probably concerned that I will be doing any sort of physical activity at all.

Yet my challenge is nothing compared to the lives of those living with HIV/ AIDS.

The goal is to raise money for AIDS awareness, prevention and ultimately, eradication.

It seems impossible at times, but here's to proving that nothing is impossible.

I hope that each of you can be a part of this amazing journey with me.

Please check the site often and share it with others.

Thank You for your donations, comments, love and support.

If anyone has any cycling knowledge, equipment, equipment discounts or magical cycling spells, please don't hesitate to share. I lack all of the above.

And please follow my training adventures at www.flickr.com/photos/grossypelosi (link below). This site will be updated frequently and abundantly.

uncle george (2/05/08 8:54PM): one billy's cupcake for every mile, maybe delivered over the course of a year or two, that's how I will support you

lauren geremia (2/05/08 2:55PM): are you done building the basket that will hold my folded limbs to LA on the front of your bike?

Evan (2/05/08 12:16PM): It's great that you're doing this. I'm so psyched for you! I took the liberty of putting in a call to Jake Gyllenhaal and a few other celebrities, and they're going to dump a bucket of Gatorade over you when you cross the finish line in Los Angeles. Seriously--- you've obviously been working so hard to make this happen, and I'm thrilled for you.

Dee, Bill & Lauren (2/05/08 7:07AM): Make sure to take lots of photos along the way. We want proof of your trip and we also want to see you in your bike shorts. Actually, your bike shorts will likely be similar to the other clothes in your wardrobe...shall we say "form-fitting." Seriously, we are very proud of you. We love you!

Sarah and Bill Morehouse (2/04/08 10:23AM): Not sure whose trip sounds crazier- yours or my sisters, given the participants! Seriously, I'm really impressed and wish you the best. Always keep your goals in mind as you go, or you'll crap out like I did on my grand adventure several years ago. I know you'll do great. We send you our best. Wish we could have sent more in terms of donations, but formula is draining our budget these days. Still, hope it helps.

Sarah, Bill, and Lilah
