Jerry bikes a lot … on average, more than 3000 miles per year. He has biked across the country, the northern half of the Mississippi River, throughout most of the states of the MidWest, in Ireland and Switzerland and back and forth to work about 9 months of every year. He has been a biking “enthusiast” since the early 1970s. Against this backdrop, we in Rotary are combining this great activity with an opportunity to make a per mile pledge for the year 2013 with the proceeds going to fund ongoing Rotary activities. We will keep you advised of the miles Jerry accumulates in 2013 and the places he goes (with pictures). His mileage goal for this year is 3500 miles. Jerry himself has pledged $.05/mile with no maximum amount. The more he bikes, the more support he gives to Rotary.
WE URGE YOU TO SUPPORT ROTARY BY PLEDGING MCADOW MILES.
