| Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is an awful disease. Imagine one day …you notice that you are having a hard time controlling a pencil or dialing a phone. Then, imagine being locked in your body, unable to move. Your brain says, “stand,” but you cannot. This is ALS. Months. Years. Eventually, the weakened respiratory muscles fail…
2008 is my SIXTH year riding from Boston to New York raising money to treat, fight and end ALS. Six years of generous friends. I have ridden the Tri State Trek EVERY year since the first and will ride EVERY YEAR until a cure is found. Two years ago, I formed a team, Team Two-Niner (#29 is my permanent rider number). That year four riders and one crew volunteer gave their best, over one LONG weekend and MANY training rides. This year team 29er is growing. More riders. More volunteers. We are prepared to do the hard part. Now, it’s your turn. Please donate. Isn’t this a worthy cause? My 2008 PERSONAL goal is to raise $5,000.
Think of me over the July 17-19 weekend. I will be thinking of you! Please be generous and thank you in advance. Richard
