Bike to the Reunion for Cancer Research

Hello to all you quitters out there.
Some news:

From 9-17 September this year I will be returning to my home town in WV to attend my 30th year high school reunion.

Since my graduation in 1980, I have lost two family members and my high school best friend to cancer. You guys can imagine how many dippers and smokers there are back in dem dere hills of WV.

Not to mention others that have battled and won against this killer including my father who has beat cancer twice but has had his right arm amputated in the face of this killer.

Believe me, some have lost more…….

I wanted to let you all know that in conjunction with my class reunion I'll be heading back “home” albeit via a different mode of transportation........

I will be riding my bicycle 600 miles from Redding, CT back to WV to attend my class reunion and also to raise awareness and support for cancer research

This ride will be in honor of everyone that has been impacted by this horrific disease to include all classmates, friends, family members and victims and survivors.

I hope you'll take a look at my trip itinerary that outlines the ride but more importantly I hope you’ll be able to make a simple donation of $5-$10 bucks to the American Cancer Society in support of cancer research. Believe me, anything is appreciated.

Thank you all in advance.

P.S. Take a look at the interactive map of the ride and check back daily for updates, photos, and videos from the road.

P.S.S. Are there any KTC members along the ride route that I could visit??
