New Team Red Philly Captains for 2013!

Team Red Philly will be sporting new captains this year!


Larry Lukin will be our 2013 Team Red Captain.  Larry was the largest fundraiser on Team Red in 2012, raising nearly $4,400!  He has been a consistent presence on our Team Red leadership meetings, training rides, many of our monthly Featured Rides, and has hosted Larry's New Hope Ride.  He's made appearances on morning television and our BALANCE episode of the new web reality show "Charmed for Life" promoting Team Red.  And if there were a "Most Improved Rider" award for 2012, Larry would have won it.  ; )


Charlie Johnston will be our 2013 Team Red Co-Captain, in preparation for being 2014 Captain!  Charlie brings a lot of experience as the 2012 Chairman of the Delaware Tour de Cure, and the 2011 Team Red Delaware Captain.  Charlie leads the Saturday Team Red Ride in Ambler, which is targeted for beginning riders to get them comfortable with riding in groups on open roads, and he's done a fabulous job getting new riders ready for the Tour de Cure.





Join me in welcoming Larry and Charlie, our new 2013 Team Red Captain and Co-Captain!



As the 2011 and 2012 Team Red Philly Captain, I have enjoyed promoting Team Red in the Philly area and I will continue to work with Larry and Charlie to meet our Team Red goals.  It was a lot of fun working with both of them over the past 2 years to build a solid foundation for Team Red.  In 2013, I'll be helping out as Red Rider Chair for Philadelphia, and I'll be striving to join the forces of Team Red and Red Riders to create a bigger and more festive Tour de Cure experience for all of us.

I'll see you on the road!

Cheers,
