This was just an idea for raising money for the American Cancer Society. I had no idea if it would work
this year or if it would grow and I would do it year after year. I know that I am a cancer survivor and I
will do what I can to help find a CURE. I am hoping there are others that feel the same.
I left Chicago on September 9. I thought I would have several riders to join me at the Navy Pier and ride a portion of the way, but no one showed up, so off I went.
As I traveled Route 66 more riders would join and some would
leave. I was the only one who went from Navy Pier to Santa Monica Pier.
I stood at the end of the Santa Monica Pier knowing I had raised about $3000 to date. I thanked God for
a safe trip and prayed for guidance for next years ride. I knew I was on to something.
