This year will be my 5th PMC, riding my first PMC several months after losing my Uncle to brain cancer. Since that time the list of people I ride in memory and honor of has grown. I ride because it is the least I can do to show support for my family, friends and strangers who show immense courage in their fight against cancer. This event, which includes thousands of riders and volunteers, is much bigger than all of us. Riding the PMC gives me hope in the face of a disease that leaves so many feeling helpless.

On the first weekend in August, I will join more than 6,500 cyclists in the PMC ride. 100% of rider-raised revenue go directly to Dana Farber Cancer Institute/Jimmy Fund. To donate, you can send a check to me, payable to PMC or donate online, go to http://profile.pmc.org/MM0642. If there is someone special to you that you would like me to ride in honor/memory of, please let me know.

Thank you in advance for your support, kindness and generosity.
