My Story

18 Jun 2024

In September 2024 I will once again take part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer... Why? Because cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the US. Sadly, over 15,000 children are diagnosed every year. Please support my ride by making a donation to GACC. Your support will change young lives. Thank you.

My Legacy

Here's my personal impact over 10 years to fight kids' cancer and save little lives.

  • Tribute Day on the Billboard in Times Square NYC!!
    18 Sep 2025

    As part of the Great Cycle Challenge USA “Tribute Day” my photo (above) appeared on the Times Square billboard.

    There were pictures of all kinds of #GCCUSA riders from every US state scrolling by all day long… it looked amazing and people in Times Square were talking about it ALL day.

  • Weather Continues to Cooperate
    7 Sep 2025

    Got up on a Sunday and immediately got on the bike (after my coffee). I saw a lot of people preparing for the Buffalo Bills home game tonight. Stopped in Village of Orchard Park for protein bar and Gatorade. I think my legs are going to be sore tomorrow!

  • Short weeknight miles still count!
    5 Sep 2025

    It wasn’t too cold outside, and it wasn’t raining after work today, so I thought it would be a good idea to get out and pedal a little bit before dinner. I didn’t expect to go 10 miles, but I was feeling good so I kept going.

    Short weeknight miles still count!
