In 2007 four cyclists, with about 10 additional good friends in support, came across the country as a relay team. They made the trip in 8 days and 14 hours. They did it to raise awareness and to fund some research for a disorder called Neurofibromatosis. One of the rider's daughter has the disorder.
- her name is Arianna.

When we did this ride two years ago there was a song called "You Find Out Who Your Friends Are" that seemed to come on the radio every few hours as we navigated and pedaled across the country. Over 3000 miles, 24 hours a day, without stopping for eight and a half days, we found out.
Ari's Angels are back at it again this year, and we're looking for you to help us make a difference for all those suffering with this dreadful disorder. Donate here to support the team, or click on one of the team to read their page and support them - proceeds go to fund research and the national programs of the Children's Tumor Foundation.
On behalf of Bill Hardy, Bill Edmonds, Dan and Steve Kendra, our crew chief Connie Oslica, and our wonderful support team, we thank you in advance for your help.
NF Endurance runs, swims, climbs, and rides in honor of those who endure the trials of NF. We celebrate and honor the capacity of the NF community to overcome this adversity. We are doing what we can to make their lives better. We ride for Arianna, and the two million others who suffer with NF. . .until there is a cure.
