The 2007 Tour for Kids fundraising epic ride concluded this past weekend.
Thanks to these early and generous pledgees on behalf of Dr. Octto:
Dr. Octto rode 413km route over 2 days and the endless rolling climbs in Ontario accumulated to add ~2600m of total climbing over the course. Our group of experienced riders worked smoothly together to averaged 33~34 km/h.
Collectively, Team Cava Restaurant presented by Codorniu rode 3600km over 4 days and thus far has received almost $6000 in generous pledges.
Chef Chris from Cava Restaurant also raised several hundred dollars in about 1 hour, by donating and carving an entire leg of genuine Jamon Serrano at the finish of the Tour.
The Ontario version of the Tour for Kids epic fundraising-ride for children's cancer-rehabilitation programmes will take place August 16~19 over 800km of Haliburton terrain.The Tour For Kids raises awareness and funds for camp organizations that help children with cancer.
Dr.Octto is excited to ride in the Tour for Kids (see photo at right). As we are a local business it is nice to support local causes and it's great to combine fund raising with cycling as both promote health and well-being. (This riding time will also be used to road-test some prototype 2008 OCTTO parts.)
Dr.Octto will ride as part of Team Cava , sponsored by midtown Toronto's Cava Restaurant.
Whether you pledge Dr.Octto or Team Cava, it doesn't matter because the donation goes to 
the same place.
Donations of $20, or more, will receive a tax receipt (by email).If you donate through Team Cava, they will give one order of Jamon Serrano for each pledge made through the team of over $50.
