...We ride our bikes as a "physical sacrifice" to raise money and awareness for non-profit organizations such as the Jimmy Fund and the Norris Cotton Cancer Center. Our first ride, in 2004, was 200 miles in two days, and since 2004 we have raised $11,546 for charitable causes. With your help, we hope to surpass $15,000 by the end of 2006! |

In 2004, Jeff Adams and Matt Solar decided to ride in the Pan-Mass Challenge, a two-day 192-mile bike ride from Sturbridge, MA to Provincetown, MA. One of the most challenging aspects of the PMC is the fundraising. In 2004 the PMC required each rider to raise a minimum of $2,750, so Jeff & Matt had to get a bit creative with how they were going to raise $5,500. After some brainstorms, the 2004 Casino Night was born. Between riding, planning, and fundraising, the project became a part-time job. When all was said and done, an amazing $6,341 was raised for the Jimmy Fund. |
