In 2010 Make-A-Wish Michigan raised enough money to grant an amazing 365 wishes. Always looking for fun ways to motivate his teammates and happy to find another excuse to donate to Make-A-Wish, Jeff Surnow decided to use this number to set a fitness goal for all of Team Alex. Thus began the Team Alex Hundo Challenge. For four years riders earned bonus donations towards their individual fundraising goals, courtesy of Jeff. From 2011-2014 Jeff donated over $16,000 in Hundo cash.
We never did reach 365 on Jeff's watch, but the challenge continues. As a tribute to his memory, and the inspiration he continues to share with us, the Surnow family continues to support us in our quest to reach the goal Jeff set for us in 2010.
Here's how to works:
In 2019, we logged a collective 137 Hundos. Ray Dybowski led the charge. That's quite a challenge, but fear not, you don't have to pass Ray to claim your share of this pot or just to have a little fun. Let's make 2020 the year we get a little closer to 365!
If you think this is great, don't thank me, thank Mike Surnow!

*Donations are made a few days last the end of July.

Here's how to works:
- Ride a century (100 miles in a single ride), log it and receive a $10 donation towards your fundraising goal.*
- Ride a double metric century (200 kilometers / 160 miles), log it and you will still get that $10 donation + an extra $5 and bragging rights.
- Ride a metric century (100 kilometers / 60 miles)? That’s not too shabby either. Log it just for fun and lets see how big our collective graph can get.

Ride as many centuries as you can until the day before the WAM.

After riding a century, log it here. It'll be added to your season total and counted towards the team goal of 365.
