Over the next few weeks, leading up to RIDETZ, we are going to be introducing the 11 wonderful, enthusiastic, and excited riders, who will be taking off on June 16th!  This way, you can learn about the riders before they leave, and then you can follow them through their journey on the blog as we post updates throughout the ride!  Today, meet Charlotte Woltz:

1)     Where are you from? 

Originally from Mount Airy, NC but have been living in NYC for 5 years (since I graduated from UNC).

2)     What do you do for work?

I just left my job at Highbridge Capital Management to attend Harvard Business School in the fall, and leave some time for a little adventure before.

3)     What do you like to do on your spare time? 

Run (completed 3 half marathons in NYC) , tennis (love playing on West Side Highway with friends), and specialty cocktails….

4)     Who is your inspiration in life?

My parents

5)     How did you hear about RIDETZ?

I share mutual friends with Meghann, who introduced me to her when I first moved to NYC. I became involved with TFFT shortly thereafter, helping with their annual fund raising event here in the city.

6)     What inspired you to want to ride this June?

I had some free time and it looked AWESOME.

7)     Are you celebrating any milestone with RIDETZ?

Taking the next steps in my life! Leaving my job and going back to school

8)     What is your favorite place to ride? (besides Tanzania that is)

Soul Cycle. Kym Perfetto is the most amazing fitness coach of any kind.

9)     What unique ways are you planning to fundraise?

Still working on it…
