This will be my tenth PMC ride. I ride because my grandmother, Jane, died from ovarian cancer. I ride for my Uncle Ben, who has brain cancer. I ride for my Uncle Kiki, who had colon cancer. I ride for my Uncle Eddie, who died of esophogeal cancer before I had the chance to meet him. I ride for my family friends Amy Schoen and Jan Simmons. I ride for Jan's sister, my dad's college friend and childhood friend. I ride for Elizabeth Mack. I ride for too many people that we all know with cancer. I ride to raise money for cancer research so that we can finally find a cure for this terrible disease.

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. Please consider donating any amount to this important cause!
