Dear Friends and Family,

Summer has arrived and with it our annual challenge – bicycle 192 miles across Massachusetts. We ride Aug 2nd and 3rd to raise money to fight cancer. It’s my 19th year doing the Pan Mass Challenge. The tenure doesn’t make it easier, but the reasons to ride keep me glued to the saddle – more loved ones with diagnoses and ‘disappeared’ government funding for research for cures. Through all this the incredible folk at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute continue to make big strides toward better treatments and happier outcomes for those afflicted. In turn I’m committed to do my part, to keep pushing up those hills and reaching out to you to fund their mission. Together, I’m confident that one day we will indeed, make cancer history.

Your support has kept us going over the years and helped us raise over $22K in 2024. We’d love for you to join our effort again and ensure the PMC continues its progress so one day we will need to ride no more. With your help we are optimistic we’ll get there!

You can make a tax-deductible contribution to our rides by either:

Warm regards
