Story
This past year and a half has been crazy with the pandemic and the cancellation of the "traditional" 800 mile Jett Ride. We were both disappointed as we look forward to Jett Riding every summer for our little brother Levi. He's not so little anymore, he's almost 15 and a soon-to-be high schooler.
For those that are new to our cause, our little brother was born with a "muscle wasting" disease known as Duchenne (very similar to ALS, Lou Gehrig's disease). He lost his ability to walk 3 years ago but that doesn't stop him from being the craziest, quirkiest kiddo around. We love him alot and always try to help him. You see almost everything in your body revolves around a muscle, and Levi's muscles simply don't work. We are his brothers and will always help him live his best life.
That's why we JETT RIDE. The ride consists of siblings and friends of Duchenne boys. Typically it's a 2-3 week, cross country type of event, riding 800 miles. This year we are doing a ONE DAY ride, on Aug 7th. The ride is approximately 60 miles and will be in our home town of Lebanon, PA. All the money raised goes directly to DMD boys/ families like ours that need assistance with items insurance doesn't cover. The Jett Foundation helped our family purchase a handicapped accessible van two years ago, that has been a game changer for Levi. So we always want to give back to this awesome organization.
