Last year I began a journey through which I met wonderful people and experienced wonderful moments, like a son's happiness his dad is cancer free, two little people who went to school dressed as their dad on heroes day because he had survived cancer. Neither of these would have happened had I not been on the ride or had funds not been raised to research cancer.

Prostate cancer affects 1 in 8 men and their families 1 in 4 black men will suffer. It is as prevalent as breast cancer is but few men talk about it and more die as a result. I hope by dressing in lycra and working my self to a frazzle on my bike I can help it become a thing of the past. If just one man sees me and gets a check at his doctors as a result it's one step closer.

Please give generously.
