Hi sponsors, hopefully you all received the link from Christian Encounter Ranch sent you after our 24 hour ridathon. Thank you for supporting me for the ride. For those who haven’t sent your money in yet, please follow their directions and send it in soon. I should be topping $5000!! Thanks again. -Arthur Baudendistel
I am now here in Loyalton, 25 miles north of Truckee. My tent is set up. 6 of us just had a great home cooked dinner and now we’re about to go to bed. I’m excited about my goal of riding 150 miles beginning at 1pm tomorrow and to raise $4,000 for Christian Encounter Ranch of Grass Valley. Thank you all who have already sponsored me. I’ve been able to raise my goals because of your generosity.
