Cycling for Sight (CFS) is an event that is both FOR and BY blind 
cyclists. It is for - benefits the San Diego Center for the Blind and 
the Blind Stokers Club. It is by - the CFS peloton of cyclists 
includes tandem teams with blind/VI stokers, as well as supporting 
cyclists of all varieties sharing the bike tour adventure.

Two special notes of introduction:
1. Blind/VI tandem teams are not required to raise the $1,800 per 
tandem team ($900 per person) fee; instead are asked to actively 
fundraise to their ability. No Blind/VI team will be turned away for 
falling short of this fundraising goal.

2. For remote Blind/VI teams (outside southern Calif), California 
Dreamin' travel assist sponsorships are available, for the purpose of 
traveling to and from the CFS tour.
If you are interested, more "teaser" highlights follow, including 
links and contacts for all the CFS information.
