Cycling for Cara's Hope

If you want to support a good cause and a crazy person, you can fire a pledge off to Cliff Vanclief, from the Hub Bicycle Shop in Cambridge, who is riding in a 24-hour cycle marathon for Cara's Hope Maternity Home in Cambridge.

Vanclief is a veteran mountain biker with six years of solo 24-hour endurance riding under his belt. He'll be riding alongside the teams participating in the Mansfield Outdoor Centre's 24 Hours Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous event starting tomorrow at noon. Vanclief likes riding solo because "I can control the action" and is aiming to put in 20 circuits of the 13-kilometre course.

If you want to pledge to his ride, you can drop by the Hub in Hespeler, or e-mail your intention to Vanclief at clifford@hubbicycleshop.com. He'll collect your pledge later.
