Family & Friends, I ride for those who have been taken by cancer, like my father, grandmother, and so many good friends. I ride for those who on a daily basis, fight the good fight of defeating their cancer like my wife. Four years ago I had the honor of devoting the ride to a Wayne Ross a very close friend who was taken by cancer. He was one of the kindest, most positive, energetic people I have known. He was taken way too early as he was only 58.
Two years ago I devoted my ride to a very dear friend, Ivan Butterfield, who very courageously fought prostate cancer. His kindness, smile, thoughtfulness, and huge heart will never be forgotten. I also rode for the most beautiful person I know, my wife Tina. Her cancer returned two years ago and she bravely had it removed..
I said two years ago that the ride would be my last. The extreme training takes its toll on an old guy. When two very dear friends passed during Covid, I decided I would ride one last time. This year I ride for Adriann Scharr and Michael Catanio. Both were very generous donaters to this cause. Adrainna was our financial adviser, and more importantly, our dear friend. Her kindness, wonderful smile, and generous heart shall always be remebered. She was only 52. My dear friend Michael Catanio was an icon in the pharmaceutical industry, and won one of it highest life time acheivement awards. His energy, enthusiasm, hugs and smile, along with his passion to help others will not be forgotten. I am honored to ride one more time for these two unbelievable people.
The donations received for this ride makes a true difference in the lives of patient's and caregivers. The enthusiasm of those cheering mile after mile and neighborhood after neighborhood, is contagious. It gives me goose bumps to reminisce about these cheering people! This ride takes many hours of training. I personally want to enjoy the 110 miles the first day and the final 83 the next. With your financial help, I will be one step closer to my goal. I was greatly supported by many for the last four rides. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!! Let's ride again, and once again, make a positive impact for those that need our help!
