Shawn Boos' MS Ride 2023 - Photo Diary

On June 24th and 25th, 315 riders and countless volunteers participated in the MS Ride from Airdrie to Olds and back, for a total of 158 kilometers. The ride is the third largest MS Ride in Canada and raised over $400,000 for MS research. Thanks to everyone would generously donated – I am truly humbled. I raised a total of $4,000 and was the 12th highest fundraiser out of the 315 riders thanks to all of you.

Lots of excitement at the start on the north side of Airdrie:

The ride started out great, until I got a flat rear tire at about the 15 kilometer mark, but I was prepared and was able to change it fairly quickly:
