What is this thing?
The 24 Hours of Booty is a 24 hour cycling event on July 28-29 that runs from 7pm to 7pm. What it is not is the Tour De France. You can ride one 2.8 mile lap or you can treat it like a CSAUP. It is all up to you how much you want to ride. The purpose is to show up to send a message to cancer and raise funds for those on the front lines of this war.
TEAM LIBSTRONG/DREW’S CREW:
The team was formed in honor of Libby Jones and Drew Slocum. Libby is the daughter of Josh and Barb Jones. Josh has been a close personal friend of Spiderman, Sir Topham Hat, and Cerrano since middle school. Libby lost her fight with cancer shortly before her 3rd birthday after battling for 14 months. Drew is the son of Wes and Amanda Slocum and also lost his fight with cancer when he was very young.
We ride in Libby and Drew’s honor, but we also ride for our family and friends that have suffered through this terrible disease. We ride for Stang’s family who lost their son at way to young of an age. We ride for Sir Topham Hat’s family who lost both his mother last year and previously his brother in law, Johnathan Tisdale, when he was only in his thirties. We ride for Spiderman’s grandparents. The list seems endless…..
We are at war with cancer. Did you know that every 2 minutes a child is diagnosed with cancer? Did you also know that childhood cancer only receives approximately 4% of the US Federal funding for cancer research? This is a specific target of our team and the 24 Foundation has already started to make changes to how funds are distributed based on influence from our team.
If there was ever a reason to lock shields, this is it. We are looking to grow our team and our impact even more this year. This is the kind of thing F3 PAX should be lining up to participate in.
Please consider joining our team.
