FEATURING Red Rider ParticipantCRAIG CIARLELLI

It doesn’t matter if one is competing in the TOUR de FRANCE or the TOUR de CURE.

Regimented training, good equipment and proper nutrition are “tools” for SUCCESS!

However, when the rider is a friend or family member, the FRIENDS AND FAMILY SUPPORT TEAM “tool” is the

one that provides the boost the rider needs to be a success. It takes the FRIENDS AND FAMILY SUPPORT TEAM sponsorship to get riders up the hill to Carter Lake Reservoir, through the back roads of Larimer

County and back to the Boulder Fairgrounds.

The FRIENDS AND FAMILY SUPPORT TEAM “tool” provides the most important element to the race… donations. Those

donations will help the American Diabetes Association care for more than 23 million Americans who have diabetes

(including more than 5 million who don't even know they have it).

On August 16, 2014 I will be completing 62 exciting and demanding miles in this year’s Tour de Cure and will be thanking the members of my

FRIENDS AND FAMILY SUPPORT TEAM for their generous donations and sponsorship.

So how can YOU become a member of my FRIENDS AND FAMILY SUPPORT TEAM?

It’s simple…Just donate on-line!

Access the Tour de Cure website: www.Tour.diabetes.orgClick DONATE and follow the instructions from there

(my first and last names are Craig Ciarlelli in case you’re not sure )

When my name comes up click on DONATE NOW and

select a gift amount that works for you - Every donation is appreciated!

THANKS for helping me start a chain reaction of caring through the Tour de Cure and the American Diabetes

Association! The funds from your donations will support many lifesaving programs, including research

to prevent, manage and find a cure for diabetes.

And THANKS for becoming a member of my FRIENDS AND FAMILY SUPPORT TEAM.
