In five days time, I get on my bike, strap a duck to my head, and tackle Bike the Barns, with a few hundred other folks, raising money for the Fair Share Coalition! There is still time to donate to Insane Charity Bike Ride 2018, though! The amount of swag you gan get for even […]
Here we go AGAIN, guys! Insane Charity Bike Ride 2018 is two months away. I need to get training! Also: I need your help! The Bike the Barns ride (what normal people call “Insane Charity Bike Ride”) helps Madison’s FairShare CSA Coalition bring fresh food from local farms to low-income families in the Madison area. It’s an amazing local charity, […]

This was a professional setback that I hadn’t expected, though. The phonecall came Wednesday night. Short story […]
