Cycling To Prevent Veteran Suicide

As a boy I had a friend who spent hours with me bicycling the rural roadways where we grew up. We lost touch after high school and went our separate ways. Years later I learned of his suicide. He'd been in the military and I'd do anything to have had one more ride with him.
Today I've taken up tour cycling to help improve my health and I'm about to make my first attempt at a 100 mile (Century) ride on Saturday May 6 during the Miami Valley Cycling Classic in Xenia Ohio. Since I never got that last ride with my friend, I've dedicated my longest ride yet to his memory and raising money to benefit a local non-profit dedicated to helping prevent veteran suicide.
So I need your help.
