Why I Ride

A two-day ride from Houston to Austin is a terrific personal challenge, and I'm looking forward to completing it. But there's a deeper reason. My cousin Nancy, who looked after my father in the last years of his life, learned shortly before he died that she has MS. And a close friend of mine and my wife's has been dealing with MS for at least 15 years.

I ride because the National Multiple Sclerosis Society provides services for those with MS, and conducts research into treatment for MS.

Times are tough, and it seems everyone is tightening their belts. But the need hasn't lessened.

Thanks so much for your help.

Let’s Move Forward Together

The Society’s chapters organize 100 Bike MS events nationwide. The BP MS 150 ride is the largest non-profit event of its kind in North America with 13,000 cyclists, 3,000 volunteers and countless supporters and spectators. They’re great fun and the funds they raise go toward research aimed at treating and eventually curing MS. They also provide education, information, direct financial aid and scholarships to individuals and families living with MS.

I’m helping the National MS Society move forward toward a world without MS.
