$18 Meatballs...

I listen to the Bob & Tom Show every day on my way to the hospital. It always puts a smile on face to the start the day and reminds me of working at Burnett-Theil Ford where they would have it on every morning in the shop. There was a comedian on today and he was telling everyone about his favorite little italian restaurant in Las Vegas and how each meatball there cost $18, he backed this up however by telling everyone that every time he eats one of them he thinks to himself "....I would pay way more than $18 for this". And that's how you know they're great.

As much as my best friend Mike Kelley wants this to be though, this is not a post completely about meatballs, its really about donating to Ride for World Health. I still have a long ways to go to reach my fundraising goal but the donations that have been coming in during these first couple of weeks have been unbelievable, I can't thank all of you enough! It's this response from family and friends that will turn this ride into a true success when we dip our tires in the Atlantic Ocean at the end of May. Much like the price of that meatball the fundraising minimum set by the Ride for World Health seems like a lot of money when you first look at it, but the statement by the comedian this morning got me thinking. For the opportunity to ride across the United States on a bike, while getting to promote something I truly believe in to thousands of people I thought to myself ".....I would pay more than $4500 for that". And that's how I know I'm getting the chance to be a part of something great.

Thank you all so much for your support! No Chain!
