and every year after i do, i tell myself it will be the last! yet here i am again asking for your support.

it could be because Dave is having radiation again this week, or that we just celebrated Johnny's birthday for the 9th year without him. maybe it's because i can't bare to imagine Jeopardy without Alex Trebek. it's probably because of the inspiration i feel when i ride, the dedication of Dr. Anderson who just won't stop researching for a cure & the high i get from all of you who believing in me year after year. it's definitly because i have witnessed the tremendous results & milestones because of the dollars i raise.

i know it's because i am terrified of the reality that one day i may be on the other side of this battlefield.

i do it because it's the right thing to do. you can do the right thing too. no amount is too little. honor those you know who have had cancer by donating to my ride. leave me a message with their names so they can be heard.

onwards & upwards.
