The Socks Century

The Socks Charity Century!!! We are riding to bring awareness to those fighting cancer. More importantly, we are putting money directly in the hands of those in need.

My mom passed away in July after battling cancer, and five weeks later, I lost my dad. Out of this significant loss came The Socks Charity. I saw how families, loved ones, and significant others struggled with the financial burden. So, I started The Socks Charity to help relieve some of the financial obligations. Allowing the focus to be placed on caregiving and assisting the cancer fighter.

How are we different? We do not hand funds over to organizations or businesses. We put the money directly into the hands of those who need it the most.

How can you help? We fundraise and bring awareness by selling FU Cancer Socks for $35.00. 100% of the proceeds to The Socks Charity. You can also make donations directly to The Socks Charity on our website www.thesockscharity.com. We host monthly SOCKs rides. AND NOW we are going to add our annual SOCKs Century ride.

What is The Socks Century? This event will become a premier ride to help fundraise for The Socks Charity. The route will be a mixture of rolling hills and flat, fast shady roads. Each registered rider will receive special edition FU Cancer Socks, water bottle, fully supported 100-mile ride, THE SOCKs FINISHER's T-shirt, and post-ride party.

We will have six different levels, so no one is left behind:

-------

Level1: You ride at your speed. So, there is no speed limit, and you can go as fast as you please.

All other levels will have ride leaders.

Level2: 21-22 mph max. The ride leader will make sure this group does not get out of control. On the hills, the pace will be steady, and on the flats, the speeds will be 21-22.

Level 3: 19-20 mph max.

Level 4: 17-18 mph max.

Level 5: 15-16 mph max

Level 6: We want to ride at our own pace and enjoy the journey.

Ride support will include on-course vehicles and SAG stations at miles 25, 50, and 75...
