Headed out to Sturbridge today for the PMC!
An email from Marty Middelmann provides info n the PMC schedule:
Thank you all for contributing to my PMC ride. So far I have raised over $4,600!
I'm headed out to Sturbridge today for my 3rd Pan Mass Challenge.
If you want to be a part of it you can watch the opening ceremonies at 7:00 pm tonight either on WCVB Channel 5 or, if you don't happen to live in Massachusetts, live streamed online at www.thebostonchannel.com.
(Don't worry everybody, you'll only miss the first hour of the Yankees/Red Sox game ;-) )
I will be posting updates throughout the weekend on Twitter http://twitter.com/PMC_M8R and on my FaceBook Page: http://www.facebook.com/PMCMarty
