My niece Meg lost her battle with Leukemia July 4, 2012, she was seven years old.

In 2019 I lost my friend Maggie the day before riding out to Sturbridge for the PMC.

This will be my 9th Pan-Mass Challenge and I have committed to raise $3,000.

Randy will be riding the Sturbridge to Provincetown route and I will be riding the Wellesley Century this year.

I am grateful for the friends and family that are still here and I'm in awe of their strength.

Riding in the Pan-Mass Challenge is my small way of trying to rid the world of cancer. Last year 100% of rider-raised revenue went towards life saving cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

If you prefer to write a check, please make it out to the PMC, The Jimmy Fund or Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and mail it to me directly at:

15 Summit St
Maynard, MA 01754

If your employer has a matching gift program, ask your Human Resources department for a form, and follow the process for matches.

I ride for my family, I ride for my friends, I ride for Meg.

Every little bit helps.

Cheer for me in August.

Thank you for your support.
