I am pleased to announce that I will be joining the Club team of Team CF!! A few months ago I discovered Team CF and knew right away that I needed to ride with this crew because we share some of the exact same ideas and goals for CF. Cycling as a way to spread awareness and raise funds for CF? I think so!
As a part of the team I’ll be rocking their incredible uniform on every ride possible to raise the awareness.

I’m hoping to get in some more races and rides this summer. Because I had a little infection pop up earlier this month I have not been able to ride or run much. The Cipro that I’m taking to treat my infection causes some rad tendon damage, hence my Achilles issue last year…so rather than rupture that bad boy I’ve been going easy. Hopefully I’ll be kicking butt and taking names this weekend!!
We had the best day of riding today (Day 4) and some of the hardest riding ever yesterday! I have the video blogs all recorded and ready to go but do to the poor internet signals you will all have to wait on the edge of your seats to see them…I’m stealing wireless in a parking lot right now..it’s that bad.
Tomorrow is our last day of riding, 64 miles or so into Pittsburgh..downhill!
Get your popcorn ready for the videos tomorrow night..
After an awesome day marching on the Hill raising CF awareness and doing some “lobbying” with my new buddies, we hit the road early this morning from the Lincoln Memorial to kick off the City to City Ride!!
Yesterday was just unbelievable. Meeting with such important people that can change and enrich our lives was so powerful. Even cooler was being able to be in these meeting with teens who have siblings with CF. After the march my buddy Will and I set up some drums and amps in the Mexican restaurant in the hotel and got ready for a remarkably thrilling rock and roll show. Hits from Journey, Zep, The Stones, Chili Peppers and Miley Cyrus were delivered..I’ve officially lost my voice and I am old!!
Get ready for the next 4 days of our adventure! We are loving this trail so far!
We are just over a month away from the 2010 City to City Ride from DC to Pittsburgh. So now it’s time to kick it into gear and start raising the much needed funds for Cystic Fibrosis. All DONATIONS made by clicking the pic or link above will go toward funding the research that is improving the quality of life for CF patients.
In order to make this ride actually happen though we need help. Because of my meds and treatments, camping along the 335 mile trail is not an option. Funding to help cover the costs of hotel rooms and food for the group is needed. So we are looking for Sponsors to maybe throw in some dough to help with these costs. Want to cover meals for 1 day? Or pay for hotel rooms for a night? Do you have granola bars or Gatorade that you’re willing to donate? Water bottles with your companies logo on them? GREAT! We will take all of the help we can get!
If you interested in helping out in any way please email me: emily@letsrockcf.org
