Welcome to Bruins Bikers!
A lot of you know our friend Amy’s story, or more to the point, the story of her brother, Scott. Here it is, in her own words:
"OK, you're dismissed. Now go be good humans in the world," Scott Rush.
He said it to every class every day, and so in his spirt, we'll do his bidding and ride again.
My brother, Scott, rode for Team Kory since the first year of Tour de Pier, 12 years ago. He was friends with Rory (Kory’s wife) as their kids' math teacher, and they rode to raise money for research to fight glioblastoma (Kory's cancer). Every year, Scott would say to me, “Aim, you gotta’ join us.” I’d nod and smile, and he'd explain The Uncle Kory Foundation.
But then in the year of cruel irony, Scott was diagnosed with the same damn cancer that took Kory's life. My brother was only 40 years old. Scott was strong and full of grace in his fight to live, but he passed within the year. We were all left devastated.”
Amy has ridden in her brother’s honor ever since, using each year as an opportunity to ride for different friends and family members affected by cancer. Andy and I have participated in Tour de Pier for several years, but this year we’re joining Amy and Team Scott, and would love for you to join us too!
Grab a seat, clip in, and let's do this!
