Please Support Bike MS 2022

Greetings,

I've started the beginning of my 2022 Bike MS fundraising campaign.?I’ve been riding and raising money for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society since 2008 and now it's just part of my DNA.?Last year, my generous donors contributed over $14,000 - the most I’ve ever raised and I’m so grateful.??Now I’m 60 and retired, so let’s see what an old man can do.?I’m going to ride in 3 Bike MS Events and ride longer distances than I’ve ever done before:

That’s 350 miles I’ll be riding for Bike MS (not counting training rides ??).??An ambitious riding goal merits a bigger fundraising goal which I’ve set at $20,000.??Will you please help me reach this goal with a generous gift??

Why I Ride

I ride because there are over 1 million people in the in US living with MS.?MS is a disease of the central nervous system that tends to affect adults in the prime of their lives and it tends to affect women more than men.?The funds you donate goes to research, advocacy, and help those with MS live their best lives.??When my sister Susie was twenty-one, she was diagnosed with MS.?Thankfully, her MS has mostly been in remission, but she has benefited from the research and support offered by the MS Society, so I know firsthand this is a worthwhile cause.???When she was first diagnosed, there were no drugs available to help those living with MS and now there are over 20.??Because of you, progress is being made and a cure is within sight.??We’re winning the fight, but there is more work to be done.

Please join with me and together we will help put an end to MS.?I would be grateful and honored to have your support.

A heartfelt THANK YOU for your consideration.
