I am riding for the adventure (this is going to be a blast!) and for the purpose. I've lost too many loved ones to cancer. Three of my grandparents passed away from some form of cancer. The latest scare was when my mother discovered she had a tumor a few months ago. She was treated, and thankfully she is okay...but nothing has ever scared me more. I'm dedicating my ride to my mother, because she is the strongest and most beautiful person I know.
