As many of you know, I just started cycling (in earnest) 5 years ago with plans to ride in the PMC to help raise money to fight cancer. I ride for Team LUNGstrong and for fellow board member, Diane Legg, an 11-year Stage 4 Lung Cancer survivor. Although me and my extended family have not been ‘touched’ directly by cancer (I’ve been lucky), by riding in the PMC, I have gotten to know and hear about so many friends and others devastated by this deadly disease. This year I will be dedicating my ride (and hours of training) to all of you and those you love affected by cancer. I’ll be wearing wristbands as I ride to remind me of the fight others are putting in as well. Please consider donating and putting your loved ones names in the notes to the rider section and I will ride for them and alongside Diane as we cross the finish line in Provincetown on the first Sunday in August.

Please comment on my page if you would like me to 'keep in mind' family and/or loved ones affected by cancer.
