I am registered for the Tour de Cure here in Phoenix March 24th, but I haven't really got my fundraising going.
I'm also considering a JDRF Ride to Cure Diabetes. Would it be appropriate to promote those here also? -

Not sure about under "Red Riders", but certainly under "Cycling Diabetics". Please do post the links for your Phoenix TdC, though!

June 3 Anchorage century, cycle to Fairbanks, June 9, Fairbanks century. Colorado Aug 18. century.
I've done the hottest ride I can find (Death Valley JDRF Ride to Cure). I've done the coldest (maybe) Southern Colorado 2011 - snowing when we finished the long ride. I've done the highest - Colorado's tops out at about 6500' elevation. After this summer, I'll have done the farthest north TdC.
What other cool goals could I do?

I completed the RI Tour De Cure on June 10. I did the 65 mile loop, it was pretty hilly. We averaged just over 16 mph. I have raised ~700 of my $1000 Goal. I am in the best shape in years but did not do any rides longer than 23 and which was totatly flat.The last 25 miles were very tough, but wearing the Red Ridery jersey realy motivated me to push on. Especialy on the last climbs.... Thanks Ed
