I'm riding the PanMass Challenge (only the first leg, about 87 miles!) this year for the first time so anything you can do to support this great cause is much appreciated.  I'm riding for a number of reasons.  I'm sure everyone has a story, including myself, about someone they know who has been stricken with cancer.... so i'm riding for all of them in hopes that one day there will be a cure.  A few months ago, I found out that my company, Shawmut Design and Construction, had over 15 people signed up for the ride this year.  Each year, more and more people from Shawmut have joined the thousands of riders who come out and support this great cause.  After hearing all the great stories about all of the amazing volunteers and supporters lining the route for the nearly 200 miles, I realized I had to ride.  Wish me luck!!
