Prince Edward Island Tip to Tip for JDRF



Well its official on June 25th, 2011 I will be attempting to cycle from the western tip of Prince Edward Island to the eastern tip in one day. The goal of this trip will be to raise both awareness and funds for Juvenile Diabetes research.


We have chosen to support a specific research project based here in Canada. This project was selected based on having had the opportunity to meet with Dr. Sylvie Lesage the project leader and have her blow us away with the advancements that she and her team have made in achieving the "gold medal" in diabetes research, prevention, care and eventual cure. I would strongly encourage anyone interested to review some of the research she has been doing. http://bit.ly/fX041U



Over the next few days we will be launching a website at: http://www.cycle4jdrf.com/ which will have more detailed information about the PEI ride as well as sponsor pages, and information on how you can track the ongoing progress of the ride as well and importantly a secure donation link. Check back often as there will be lots of detail published to this blog and website.

Thanks everyone.
