Ben Shubert's Story


My wife and I moved to Rockledge Lane about a year and a half ago with our dog Leo. We recently welcomed our son to the world, and enjoy walking, running, biking and fishing at Moody Pond. It feels like a day is not complete without a trip around the pond. If two days in a row pass without a trip around the pond, something is really missing! We enjoy watching the turtles, otters, fish, loons, and other wildlife.

To help raise money for the eradication of Eurasian watermilfoil from Moody Pond I will be biking 50 laps around the pond in one day. The loop is about 1.1 miles, so this ride will be approximately a "half century ride". Please consider donating for the cause, or joining my ride.  Donate per lap or a lump sum, or join my team!

****Update August 7****

Tomorrow, Saturday August 8th I will be doing my ride of 50 laps around Moody Pond.
