Jim Yearick's PMC

Hi Friends! Things are looking better for us this year versus this time last year. I hope your health is strong and your spirits are up. So, what do we do now? We ride of course. We ride for cancer. Not really for cancer…to cure cancer...but you knew that. A quick reminder for those of you who are new to this worthy cause. The Pan Mass Challenge is a biking event where 6,000 riders raise $60M dollars over a couple days riding from Central Massachusetts to Cape Cod supported by the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. We each need to raise $5,000 (this is where you come in).

Last year was a little challenging as our ride was virtual…meaning we decided how to do it on our own. It was especially challenging because my group of 6 rode the same course (getting lost a couple times) without the amazing support of the PMC volunteer team. I trained through chemotherapy due to Stage 4 colon cancer. But we did it! Thank you very much for your support. I am fully recovered, cancer free and feeling great.

I mentioned we did not have volunteer road support on our ride last year, but I certainly had a ton of support from all of you! Thanks to your motivating and positive encouragement you gave me the drive for the ride and to get through the treatments. I also received amazing support from my wife Loreen in so many ways. Now she is taking it a step further and joining us in the ride (as you can see in the photo). We will not send separate requests for your support. Just this one. So, if you feel inclined to double… or triple your support it would be appreciated as we need to raise $10,000 combined. Our PMC ride to help cure cancer is August 7th. Please take a couple minutes this week and help us out if you can. Any amount is highly appreciated and will be valued not only by us in our fundraising efforts, but more so by those facing cancer.
