Cycle for Survival

On Sunday, February 12th, with outside temperatures in the teens in the Washington, D.C. area, Badger (see green arrow in overhead shot) decided to join hundreds of cyclists at Equinox in Bethesda as part of a fundraising cycle-thon called "Cycle for Survival."
Badger joined the 3-Legged Dog team with captain Leslie Heyer, Eric Heyer, Ann Mullen and Tom Olson.

The annual indoor cycling event raises money for rare cancer research at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. We all know individuals who inspire us on the bike because of their abilities and disabilities --- but the organizers of this event and its founder have raised the bar.

This was such a memorable event and it was great to see members of ABRT and NCVC pulling rotations with their respective teams.

What say you MABRA: wouldn't it be great to have every MABRA team raise money for cancer research by participating in Cycle for Survival 2013?!?!

Let's give the local Washingtonians a reason to be inspired by the spandex-clad swarms of cyclists they see slowing down their commute weekend after weekend on River, Travilah, Esworthy...
While you'll have to wait for the event to return next year to show up your rival MABRA team, you can still donate to the 3-Legged Dog team by clicking here!
