13 times, I have cycled 7 days, 575 miles, from San Francisco to Los Angeles in a cycling charity event called AIDSLifecycle. In route to Los Angeles, I (and 2,000 of my best friends) cycle thru Montecito - Santa Barbara, CA. ( Montecito is the home to Oprah Winfrey ).Each Year, the locals of Montecito - Santa Barbara gather and create their own "Paradise Pit Stop" for the approx. 2,000 AIDSLifecycle Cyclist & 400 Volunteer Crew members. There you can find: chocolate bars, strawberries, homemade ice cream, corn dogs, Twinkies, coco cola, massages, and then some.. ... ALL YOU CAN EAT ...GRATIS!Years ago (as I ate my strawberries and homemade ice cream), I asked several Montecito residents: "Where is Oprah?"

- "In November 2008, as I was looking at the "Grotto" (community space) of Sports Basement, a light bulb went on. And, I began to ponder over the idea of using Sports Basement's community space to serve the yoga community. So to get the ball rolling, I began to teach free yoga classes each Sunday at Sports Basement. A month later, I organized the first yoga teacher schedule, began the internet promotions, and then watched the students arrive. Since that time, the seed has blossomed. And, Sports Basement has applied my initial concept to their other store locations. And now, I would just like to express my thanks & gratitude to all the yoga students who have attended & all the yoga teachers who have supported the idea of "free yoga Sundays" - making yoga accessible to every individual regardless of financial status Much love & thanks," Founder of Sports Basement's Free Yoga Program, Yoga teacher, Tony Eason Check it out: http://ynottony.com
Arriving at SFO & boarding the plane at 10:30pm, I arrived at 7:00am to JFK. With no sleep & slightly tired, I hopped the "A Train." Soon later, I traveled to 47th & 9th Ave (in Manhattan) to have breakfast with & check up on the updates of AIDS Activist, Suzanne Africa Engo.

From Chardonnay to cocaine to Shimano to Campagnolo. From Bianchi to Salsa to Soulcraft. From 1 mile to 127 miles to 575 miles to 6325 miles to well over 32, 725 miles. From Start to Finish to Mike's Bikes to Sport Basement & American Cyclery. From my first yoga class, to becoming a yoga teacher. Who would have ever thought that an adventure that started off as merely "something to tell the grand children" would bring me onto such a positive & life changing path?
