Why I Ride, why I ask you to help:

Pedal the Cause weekend is coming up. 


I ride to help researchers unravel the cancer conundrum. I ride because my late wife, Alice, succumbed to cancer and my family is still grieving.
Thank you for previous donations. This link will show how you have helped and how your money will be used going forward.  Because of your caring and generosity, I have raised over $16k.  This is not big Farma.  This is you (and others) making a contribution to make a local and logical research possible to make steps to cure cancer.

I ride because the world has lost: Marti Ashley,  David Bowie, Aretha Franklin, Peter Jennings, Walt Disney, Pele, Charles Schulz, Babe Ruth, Dr. Suess, Henry Ford, Frank Zappa, Humphrey Bogart, Ruth Bader Ginsberg, George Harrison, Jimmy Buffet, John Wayne, Ulysses Grant, Jackie Onassis, Steve Jobs, Chick Corea, Bob Marley, Eddie Van Halen, Gregg Allman, Toby Keith, Valerie Harper, Patrick Swayze, Paul Newman, Farrah Fawcett, Donna Summer, Little Richard, David Sanborn, Merv Griffin, Anne Bancroft, Kirstie Alley, Olivia Newton-John, John McCain, Ted Kennedy, Ed Bradley, Alex Trebek, O J Simpson, Mickey Mantle, Bette Davis, Elizabeth Montgomery, Frank Robinson, Roger Maris, Walter Payton, John Coltrane, Sammy Davis Jr., Maurice Richard, Johnny Ramone, Bob Denver, Seve Ballesteros, Curt Flood, Al Unser, Walter Becker, Rube Goldberg, and others. Chances are you lost a loved one. You are lucky if you haven't.
Please support my efforts by donating to my fundraiser (click on the link below).  My entry fee pays all the administrative and promotional activities, while 100%  of your donation will fund lifesaving cancer research at Siteman Cancer Center and Siteman Kids at St. Louis Children's Hospital.
