The 2014 Texas 4000 Riders are preparing for their journey from Texas to Alaska next summer, and is seeking a host sponsor for their stop in Pinedale. The Texas 4000 is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based at the University of Texas at Austin. Every summer, they organize a 4,500 mile cycling ride from Texas to Alaska, where riders travel across the country on bikes to spread hope, knowledge and cancer awareness in hopes of finding a cure. Each rider fundraises a minimum of $4,500 (and many raise more) to donate to world-class cancer research institutions such as MD Anderson in Houston, Texas. Since 2003, when Texas 4000 was founded by a passel of college students, they have raised over $3.5 million to donate to finding a cure for cancer and spread hope, knowledge and charity from South Texas all the way to Anchorage, Alaska. For more information about their organization, go to http://www.texas4000.org/.

The team would be arriving in Pinedale on June 24, 2014 and leaving before 9AM on June 25, 2014. They are hoping to find someone who would be willing to host their team of 28 Texas 4000 riders. Anyone wanting more information or interested in helping is asked to contact Trudie Bruno, 2014 Texas 4000, Rockies Travel Coordinator at (832) 361-9526, http://texas4000adventurewithme.weebly.com/
