I tell everybody this: I only raise money for two events: the MS Bike Tour, which is a 160 kilometre (100 miles) two-day ride through the scenic (and often sweltering) Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia, and that Movember thing, in which I uglify myself for a month near the end of the year (more news on that very soon).

It's summer. Cycling season. And so, if you're the generous type, I hope you'll consider sponsoring me for the upcoming MS Bike Tour on July 25/26. Your donations are of course tax deductible, and you can donate online safely and securely.

Pictures from last year's event are here.
