I'll be riding in place to move charity forward at the Tour de Pier! The Tour de Pier brings hundreds of stationary cycling bikes to the iconic Manhattan Beach Strand to create awareness and raise funds for three outstanding cancer charities: Hirshberg Foundation for Pancreatic Cancer Research, the Cancer Support Community South Bay and the Uncle Kory Foundation. 

My good friend passed away 2 years ago of pancreatic cancer.  The saddest part was, she didn't know she had stage 4 pancreatic cancer until it was too late.  She was diagnosed and gone 1 week later.  It was a sad day.  She was only 64.  She was full of life, retired and giving back to her community in many ways.  Why?  We'll never know, but hopefully, with research, we can come up with new ways to detect this deadly cancer earlier on and cure it. 

Please consider contributing towards my fundraising efforts today. Or if you'd like, you can join me for a day of fun at the beach, a great ride, remembering those we have lost and celebrating those who are currently battling this disease. Together we can make a huge difference so that no one faces cancer alone. Let's ride in place and move charity forward!
