The Landscapers are in Training!

Lake Tahoe Century Ride

  • Thanks

    Thank you all for your generous support in 2008. With your help we have raised over $14,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society!

  • The Double Challenge…

    In May 2008, Wendy Andringa and Marty Barry did their first century ride...thats a 100 mile bike ride... in Lake Tahoe! We joined forces with "Team in Training" for training and fundraising support as we took on the challenge of helping find a cure for blood cancer. We are both individuals that have had cancer touch our lives, in different ways, and are now doing something to help make a difference. We pledged to raise $5,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and far exceeded that goal, and completed the century ride up and down the hills of Lake Tahoe! Your support helped us meet both challenges! Until our next century ride with Team in Training - we want to say that our generosity is and was greatly appreciated! This site was originally intended as a venue for Wendy and Marty to post about our trials, pains, and successes riding for our team, the Landscapers. We’re still riding for our team, just not fund-raising this year. So, until we push again to raise money for cancer we’ll update posts periodically with events that inspired this page, and that will project this page into our futures.

Isn’t She Lovely?

This is my new Jamis Quest… all 20 lbs of her!

OK, I know I’m not on it in the photo, but its impossible for me to photograph my bike with me on it. Today is cold cold cold again, about 20º with the wind chill, so I am taking a rest day but will get back out there tomorrow. Maybe I can get a few photos while I’m riding…

      Adam the bike is awesome…. I had it fitted out by a local guy named Felix Calderon. If you are in the area you should check him out. It now looks a bit different than the photo since he adjusted everything.
