Michael's AIDS/Lifecycle Bike

I need help in defraying the cost of my road bike to do the AIDS/Lifecycle.

I’m preparing for a monumental journey and I couldn’t be more excited! It’s not going to be easy, but it’s likely to be one of the most rewarding weeks I will experience in my life. And I need your help to make it possible.
June 4th - June 10th I will ride my bike 545 miles from San Francisco to Los Angeles to support the life-saving services offered by San Francisco AIDS Foundation and the Los Angeles LGBT Center, in the fight to end HIV/AIDS.

Preparing for this journey will require countless hours of training and preparation. I’ve committed my time to make sure that I’m ready, and I'm committed to raising $5000, and I've already raised $3600 (my AIDS Lifecycle donation page is found here:  http://www.tofighthiv.org/goto/Spud_Peterson).

For that, I’m asking you to support me by donating as generously as you possibly can towards my bike purchase.  To the people who rely on these services to survive, every dollar counts. And every dollar brings me closer to being able to participate in this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Thank you for making this event possible for me and for being the support that I need to cross the finish line on June 10th.  Let’s make a difference together!

With love and gratitude,

Michael
