This will be my third year riding in this cycling fundraiser to raise money for cancer research. I'll admit that at first it was about the personal accomplishment but now it's because I have seen first hand how cancer has affected so many lives, including those of friends, family, and even people I have never met.

I want to contine to contribute to the ongoing fight to find better treatments, provide support for those affected, and ultimately help in the search for a cure. Every pedal stroke in this event is a step toward making a difference. By making this an annual tradition, my goal is to continue to be a part of a larger community that is dedicated to improving the lives of cancer patients and helping their families cope with the impact of this disease. This ride isn’t about personal accomlishments anymore; it’s about making a real impact in the fight against cancer.

For all of those who have donated in prior years, I really appreicate your continued support. Please remember that every little bit helps!
