I look around our team and I see people who have been touched by cancer. Some directly. (I am a Leukemia survivor—12 years and counting!) I'm so inspired by this group who gives their time and their talents to try to do more.

I'm here for my Dad who lost his cancer fight in 2012. I'm here for my inspiring friend, Matthew, who has been fighting and winning since 2010. I'm here for my friend, Bob, who never got the chance for a fair fight. I'm here to keep at least one other person from having to learn what this horrible disease is capable of. If I have anything to say about it, NO ONE RIDES ALONE.​

I help with Ride 2 Boulevardia for two reasons. First is that I love riding my bike and I’ve been riding for as long as I can remember. It clears my lungs and it clears my head. I tell people it’s my own personal health care system. Second is that despite our best efforts, being active and trying to live in a healthy way, cancer still happens. The surest bet against it is science, and science requires funding. Ride 2 Boulevardia positively brings the two together in a happy combination.​
