I'm incredibly grateful to be riding in my second Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC) in 2025! This year, I will be tackling the Sturbridge to Provincetown route, totaling 186 miles over two days - this is a special opportunity for me, as 2025 is the final year that the PMC will be starting in Sturbridge before moving to another location in 2026. This year is also unique, as I will be riding for Team CRUS11TOUR for the first time - CRUSIITOUR was founded in memory of Davey Hovey, a 25-year-old Boston-native who tragically passed away from cancer in 2017 after a 16-month battle, including 5 brain surgeries and many rounds of treatment. You can learn more about Davey's story here. I am honored to ride for CRUSIITOUR and am inspired by the team's effort to raise funds for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institue each year. In 2024, CRUSIITOUR raised $1.4mm, and I hope to be a small, yet important to contributor to the team's efforts this year.

I am also riding this year for all of my loved ones who have been impacted by this terrible disease, both directly and indirectly. Most notably, I remember my Grammy, Grandma, and Pa who all courageously and gracefully fought cancer. Thank you for your consideration and contribution - every dollar counts!
