Cycling from Houston to Austin

What have I done?
These were the exact words going through my head after I hit the "submit" button on my registration for the MS 150. What kind of person bikes from Houston to Austin over the course of a weekend? I've been wanting to do the MS 150 for over a year now. My motivation for doing the ride was for a friend who was diagnosed with MS in the past year. I was a little nervous about committing to the ride, but another friend of mine encouraged me to do it with him.
So now I'm signed up! Part of the MS 150 is fundraising for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society which aims to help millions living with MS. The minimum amount each rider is asked to raise is $400. I've set a goal to try to raise at least $1000 for the MS society so I have a long way to go (see my fundraising page). If you are interested, please consider partnering with me on this adventure!
I hope to write about my updates here as we get closer to April.
