An incredible woman I adore (and you should, too!) is participating in AIDS/LifeCycle 9 from June 6-12, 2010. She will be riding her bicycle from San Francisco to Los Angeles as part of this amazing event pulled together by the LA Gay & Lesbian Center and the SF AIDS Foundation. This isn't a competition but is instead a transformative ride to bring awareness to the AIDS pandemic and to end human suffering.
Did you know that it costs an HIV positive person about $20,000 a year to get treatment and medication? Did you know that there are 151,000 people in California ALONE who are infected with HIV? This ride is meant to help raise awareness to the problem and to raise funds to provide those necessary medical services to those in need.
Tricia is an incredibly brilliant and powerful force in this world. Without having met her, she has helped shape my way of thinking and going about my day. Read her blog, see how inspiring she is, and be moved to donate to her ride in June. She'll be on the road for 7 days and 545-miles! It's such an awesome thing to be part of. Don't you want to do what you can to contribute? I know I do!
