T - I - Double Guh - Rrrrrr!

           

The wonderful thing about Tiggers
Is Tiggers are wonderful things
Their tops are made out of rubber
Their bottoms are made out of springs
They're bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy
Fun, fun, fun, fun, fun
But the most wonderful thing about Tiggers
Is I'm the only one

Can you believe it? This is my ninth year to ride my bike from San Francisco to Los Angeles, raising money for AIDS prevention and treatment programs. And as usual, I'll be riding Tigger, my bright orange, full-suspension, knobby-tire mountain bike. 

Some of you have been with me from year one, generously donating every year. Now, for ALC7, I'm asking you to do it again. I know it's asking a lot to keep coming back for money year after year, and believe me if it wasn't such an important cause I wouldn't be doing it. And like I said last year, I've been called stubborn before (although I prefer to think of it as 'persistant'), and I'm sure I'll be called stubborn again. But we're fighting a stubborn disease. Please contribute as generously as you can, and consider a recurring donation, as even a small monthly contribution really adds up. Also, please tell your friends, family and co-workers about this web site. Thank you so much for anything you can do.

How to Fall Off a Mountain
Read about the mountain climbing accident that almost kept me out of LifeCycle for a year.

L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center
The L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center, a leader in battling AIDS and caring for those who are HIV-infected since the earliest days of the pandemic, provides free medical care to those who can't afford treatment and distributed more than $17 million worth of free HIV medications last year. The Center also provides one-on-one and group therapy, mobile testing/counseling, education, advocacy, and prevention services. Each month 700-1,000 people are tested for HIV at the Center.
