Hours after our TDL cyclists departed, severe thunderstorms hammered Toronto Monday, leaving cars stranded throughout
the city and over 300,000 residents without power.
The G.T.A. was hit with a month’s worth of rain in just one day, with
approximately 3.5 inches of rainfall.
HI
TO ALL THE RIDERS
WE
THOUGHT OF YOU TODAY, AND WE HOPE THAT YOU WERE NOT IN TORONTO WITH THIS
INCREDIBLE RAIN. WE ARE KEEPING OUR FINGERS CROSSED FOR DRY AND COOLER WEATHER
THIS YEAR. THE DEDICATION OF ALL OF YOU RIDERS IS IMPRESSIVE, AND WE ARE SO
HAPPY TO SEE THAT OVER $60,000.00 HAS BEEN PLEDGED.
AS A COMMUNITY, WE SHOULD ALL BE SO PROUD OF AND THANKFUL FOR ALL YOUR COURAGE
AND ENTHUSIASM IN UNDERTAKING THIS ENDEAVOR TO RAISE MUCH NEEDED FUNDS FOR OUR
HOSPITAL. THANK YOU ALSO TO THE ROTARY CLUBS AND ALL OTHERS, BOTH IN CANADA
AND IN THE U.S.A., WHO ARE ASSISTING IN ANY WAY WITH THIS TOUR. WHAT A
WONDERFUL CONTRIBUTION AND WHAT A STUNNING ACHIEVEMENT BY ALL THE PARTICIPANTS,
WHETHER ON THE FULL TOUR OR ON PART OF IT OR ASSISTING. THANK YOU AGAIN!
GOOD
LUCK, SAFE JOURNEY, AND WONDERFUL MEMORIES, RICK AND ELMA KIMPEL
