I am riding Braking the Cycle for a third year. It boils down to the simple fact that it is reinforcement that I know and feel the community is out to support one another. Whether or not you are HIV positive The Center, its staff, members, and the community as whole is a team. It extends beyond Team Eagle. Working together, on a bicycle or not we can make a change. Lifting one another's spirits, sharing smiles, raising much needed funds for The Center, lending an ear and shoulder, being a friend, and loving, we are here for one another. The more I tell myself this and witness this on the road it brings a great deal of relief to me. Earlier in the year I was tempted not to ride. Then I thought "maybe I will crew." It hit me that I couldn't give in to the stress and complexities of life. I needed to be on Team Eagle. I needed to be on the road pedaling. I owe this to The Center. As you may or may not know, each rider is required to raise $3,500 in order to ride. The hard part should be encouraging one another and helping those that need the lift. Help me make the fundraising the easy and less painful part!
