The time has come…
This will be my 12th PMC as part of the the team, Biker's Dozen. And this year my daughter, Mila will be joining me again for her 2nd. Mila and Ellie had an incredibly tight bond. Mila looked up to Ellie in every way; they were inseparable and their love authentic and pure.
Your support fuels critical pediatric brain cancer research and makes a powerful difference in the fight against cancer.
Please know you are a huge part of Ellie’s medical and research team at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Together we are making progress...our work is shining new light on the complex biology driving this malignancy and opening new avenues for furture drug discovery. On a personal level, these achievements help give meaning and purpose to what Ellie endured throughout her battle with cancer. Your gift to research is an important investment in the future. Your gift helps the child yet to be diagnosed and your gift helps the physician researcher who will develop less toxic treatments to help that child. With your help we will continue to make advances, better understand what drives pediatric brain tumors and develop better treatments all while pursuing a cure. Unfortunately, finding a cure is a marathon...this is why I ride.

Cancer is a time filled with vulnerability, fear and sadness at the same time a need to be strong, positive and hopeful. Lisa and I collect our courage everyday to move forward. We can hear Ellie’s laugh, see Ellie’s smile, sense Ellie’s touch and feel Ellie’s spirit.
Your efforts and support bring hope that future families will be spared from having to endure the pain of losing a child.
I've made a personal commitment to ride and raise $20,000. So I hope you can help me achieve this significant goal. To date the Biker’s Dozen team has raised more than $4,600,000.00.
Every donation brings us closer by the mile. What truly powers this critical and life saving research is YOU!
Thank you,
Nick
