I hope this is the last one I have to send.  Forgive the formatting; it was sent from LifeCycle’s participant services website:

In just 16 days, I will be leaving on a unique bicycle trip: 545 miles over seven days from San Francisco to Los Angeles, as part of a large group of bicyclists joined together to raise money and awareness to fight HIV/AIDS and support those living with this disease. The AIDS crisis is NOT over, but I’m riding to put it behind us.  For that, I’ll need your help.

I’ve pledged to raise $3,000 on behalf of the San Francisco AIDS Foundation, one of the co-organizers and co-producers of the AIDS/LifeCycle ride, but I’m still $250 short, and I need your help.  Your contribution will enable the Foundation to continue providing leadership to prevent new HIV infections and to develop ground-breaking prevention program and bold policy initiatives. Together we can do our part to support the Foundation and its clients.

I greatly appreciate your time, your consideration, and your support. To keep you posted on my fundraising and training progress (the California coast, after all, is not always an easy ride), I’ve established a blog at http://nothingsharper.com/blog/lifecycle.php, and I hope to update it from the road as well, to give you a taste of life on the ride.

Please, make your donation now by clicking the link at the bottom of this e-mail.

With sincerity and gratitude,

Ryan Sharpe
