My third Tour de Teddi, and thanks to my sponsors, raised the most money I ever have for Camp Good Days -- $550. Enjoyed riding with friends Paul and Maria, and we stopped for a few refreshments close to the finish line.

This was my first year participating in the event, benefiting Camp Good Days in Branchport, NY. Hats off to whoever put ad signs in the Brockport area -- I would not have known about it otherwise. Ironically I spend a considerable amount of time on Keuka Lake, because of our cottage there -- so I knew the roads well. Given the great cause this goes towards, it was a no brainer to ride and raise some money for Camp Good Days.
Despite the threat of rain, the day was a perfect fall day to ride. There was a still wind from the South, but the course was mostly flat and shorter than I am used to. It was fun to ride with over 200 enthusiastic cyclists, and I enjoyed seeing my cycling friends from the Tour de Cure, including Tom, Bob, Richard and Chris. Before I knew it we were in Hammondsport, at the town's center park, a perfect spot for a rest stop.
At the ride's end we were treated to a tasty lunch at the lake shore. I had never been on the grounds of Camp Good Days, so I enjoyed seeing the grounds. I can only imagine how much fun kids have here over the summer.
Thank you to my sponsors -- including a very generous one from Joyce and Chuck Biss -- I've never met these folks -- but they saw my donation page posted on the Wheezers & Geezers FB page. Thanks to David Lamb for posting on FB the reason why I was not at the team picnic. I raised $221 -- and the Tour de Teddi page says the event raised nearly $20,000 for a camp devoted to provide a great camp experience for children who's lives have been affected by Cancer.
