I will be riding to honor my mother Hsin Chu Chung Lo, who died of lung cancer in August 2004. As my mother loved traveling, the cross-country trek will be my personal way to thank her for the past 22 years that we shared together. More importantly, by spreading a message of hope along the way, I wish to help cancer patients find strength in their individual fights against cancer. Biking across the country will probably be a huge challenge... but I am extremely excited about it. I have wanted to do something like this for a long time and am very glad that I'll be working and peddling with a great group of friends who all share the same vision.
