Why I Ride ...

I'll get right to the point. Cancer sucks and can completely upend your life in a heartbeat. As many of you know, our daughter Sabina, passed away in the fall of 2022 after a brave four-year battle with clear cell sarcoma. We miss Sabina every day. But her passing only makes my passion for fighting cancer stronger and for helping to prevent other people from suffering from this dreaded disease. As if any more motivation was needed, the Trump administration's incomprehensible war on science makes raising money to fight cancer even more important.

This August, I will participate in my 14th Pan Mass Challenge Ride. As usual, my cycling crew and I will make this a three-day event. We're going back to the future and starting with our back wheels on the Massachusetts-NY border in West Stockbridge and will bike to Sturbridge, adding an additional 97 miles to the traditional 2 day, 186 mile Sturbridge to Bourne to Provincetown ride. Joining me on my ride will be two friends who are cancer survivors- living proof that we can conquer cancer.

The Pan Mass Challenge (www.pmc.org) is the biggest fundraiser of its kind in the world. Last year, we raised $75 million and with that, broke $1 billion dollars raised since the inception of the ride. As always, 100% of the money raised is devoted to fighting cancer. This will be my sixth year as part of the Sarcoma Cycling Brigade, a team of riders and volunteers who are raising funds specifically for sarcoma research. Sarcomas are rare cancers and as such do not get the same attention as other more prevalent cancers. Our goal is to raise as much money as we can, both as a team to fight sarcoma, and as PMC riders and volunteers to fight all cancer.

Thank you for considering a donation to my ride (or a donation to another participant). Together we can make a difference in the battle against cancer, while remembering those who we loved and lost and those who are bravely fighting cancer.

Be well,

Ken
