Coming up the west side of Vail pass; June 2021.
Dear friends,


Thank you again for helping support my efforts to fund raise for Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center and their efforts to support cancer research and end cancer. 

The Empire State Ride (ESR) was cancelled for 2020 because of the pandemic. For that "ride" I raised $4100. Last year (2021) I raised about the same amount of money but importantly I started and finished the ESR. It was a fabulous experience. 

Thanks again for supporting me and my efforts to help raise money for cancer research and to end caner. A just and righteous cause.

The Empire State Ride is more than just a bike ride. In July, I am cycling over 500 miles across New York State to end cancer. 

Everyone knows someone whose life has been affected by cancer. This is my opportunity to make a real difference and impact the state of cancer research from the seat of my bike. Together, we can fuel groundbreaking discoveries and bring an end to this terrible disease. 

Please consider making a donation to my efforts today. No donation is too small, and every dollar adds up to something greater than what any one of us could ever accomplish alone. Join me in making a difference. 
 
 
These are my top 10 reasons for doing the Empire State Ride from NYC to Buffalo


10. It is for a good cause; Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center.

9. My dear wife Donna did a similar distance in biking from Minneapolis to Chicago in support of HIV-1/AIDS facilities.

8. I love to bike.

7. This will help motivate me to bike more.

6. I was born in Syracuse New York and stayed there until I graduated from high school and the route goes through Syracuse!

5. I get to see New York State; at least that which falls between NYC and Buffalo!

4. My sister survived a very serious bout of breast cancer.

3. We recently published our first ever manuscripts about cancer and what we are working on might help people live longer with glioblastoma (brain cancer).

2. A dear friend and colleague working as a faculty member at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center is doing the ride for a second time.

And the number one reason I am doing this ride and raising money for Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center is…..

1. I don’t talk about this very much – I myself am a cancer survivor. Five years cancer free and counting!!!
