Cancer, unfortunately, has a storyline in all of our lives. I'm a proud supporter of the PMC because it is leading a charge to beat cancer. In fact, last year 100% of rider-raised revenue went directly to support the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's tireless commitment to finding a cure.

This year, I am riding with Team FLAMES, which has been in existence for 23 years, and we have raised $10.9M for cancer research with 100% pass-through to Dana Farber. The FLAMES supports two key research departments in Dana Farber, both focused on blood cancers, Leukemia and Lymphoma. Blood cancer research discovery affects and is at the root of cancer discovery for all cancers – in any part of the body. This unrelenting “open-source” clinical work within the non-profit Dana Farber Cancer Institute is leading the way in the US and worldwide. That is where our raised rider dollars, all 100% of them, go.

Completing this ride has been a goal of mine for as long as I've known about the cause, and I'm once again looking forward to the challenge for the second year in a row. Thank you in advance for your support!
