Why I Ride ...
Hello everyone and welcome to my PMC story. In 2007 I completed my first PMC, riding 82 miles from Wellesley to Bourne, MA all in 92 degree heat. I was so inspired by the faith of all of those people lining the route, spraying us down with cold water from their hoses and holding signs that said THANK YOU PMC RIDERS!! and by how amazing it felt physically to be able to ride a bike that far. Urged on and supported by my husband, Costa, and with all of Team Perry (all 70 of us) I completed the ride in 7 hours and raised $2,600 dollars towards finding a cure for cancer.
Since 2007 so much has happened, including the loss of my beloved mother-in-law Ellen due to complications of mutliple forms of cancer. This illness knows no discrimination, and I am sick of it. It's time to knuckle down and finish this thing once and for all. I've seen too many lives upended by a cancer diagnosis, friends sick from chemotherapy and burned from radiation; but I've also seen the determination of my own fellow Team Perry riders to win this fight together.
The donations you give go directly to the Dana Farber Cancer Institute here in Boston, and specifically to support ground-breaking cancer research and treatment of patients TODAY. Please give anything you can to help us win this fight!
This year, I am riding from Wellesley to Bourne again, but this year I must raise $4500 by October 1, 2020.
PLEASE HELP SUPPORT MY PMC RIDE.
God bless you all and thank you for your contributions!
With love,
Joy Leotsakos
