2008 MS-150 Training Series
2008 Training Ride Pictures Online!
You may have noticed one of our riders snapping tons of pictures during the rides this year. Tim Hansford has put together an amazing collection of photos for us to view. There are photo links on the training page for all of the completed rides, or you can go to Tim's Cycling Photography Page to see them all in one place. Please make sure to thank him when you see him on the road.
Please carpool! Many of the communities that we ride in have limited parking. If you need help finding a carpool, click the carpool link on the left or ask your team captain for help.
If you missed the BP MS150 registration, there are 2 other Texas MS150 fundraising tours, and it would be a good idea to register for the Sam's Club MS150 now before the May 3rd & 4th tour starts to sell out.
There are also many volunteer opportunities available for the BP MS150 tour. Please visit the NMSS Lone Star Chapter's website for more information about any alternate MS150 activities if you or a friend missed the registration cut-off.
Ever wonder what your training fees fund?
To give you an idea of what your fee covers, here are the major items:
- Food
- Fresh bananas each week (Oranges coming when it gets warm...)
- Drinks
- Porta-lets
- Coolers
- Misc supplies (knives, paper goods, cups, alum trays, etc.)
- Law enforcement
- Emergency crew (required at some later rides)
- Community donations (varies by community)
- Surprises as budget allows...
