Scott's Diabetes

#ScottsDeathRide – What in the world?

By

A few months back, my friend Erik Douds talked me into this crazy adventure of cycling 100 miles through DEATH VALLEY to benefit JDRF.

Henceforth affectionately known as #ScottsDeathRide – a.k.a. JDRF Death Valley 2019 Ride to Cure Diabetes! (don’t worry, I’m not going to die)

Join us on our mission to raise $8,000 in support of JDRF while riding our bikes 100 miles in 100-degree heat!

Erik is a professional cyclist who has biked over 10,000 miles. I am not 😎

Along the way, we’ll be talking to many amazing people, doing some social rides (even virtually) and offering great giveaways to get you involved!
