I'm back for my sixteenth year in the Pan Mass Challenge, the largest athletic fundraiser in the world! I am grateful to be riding this year on a second new hip! Grateful I can still pedal. Grateful and riding this year for my Godfather Uncle Mark, who died of cancer last August. He was a good man.This is why I ride. For Mark and all who face or have been lost to cancer.. I ride for the Dana Farber Institute, New England's world class cancer care and research hospital. This year it is threatend with cuts to its federal funding so we need your help! My goal is to raise $9000! Remember--100 percent of your donation goes to the cause! Donations accepted by mail or online at link below. Ride is August 2nd. Prayers needed and much appreciated!! Thanks for your past gifts and those yet to come!

In the Greatest of Hope, John Hudson
