June 7th

So Saturday we had our first meet and ride.  We rode about 15 miles through Los Altos.  It was a nice quick clip through some beautiful side streets.
What floored me was that later we heard from the honorees, the people who have experienced leukemia or lymphoma.  The stories of their battles with the various diseases and how the money raised from Team in Training is so important really focused me on how crucial it is to not only ride, but raise as much money as possible.
On my video, you'll hear from one of the honorees.  Recently diagnosed, he came to tell his story. Seeing his obviously strong spirit and love for his family sums up what we're riding for better than a few words on a blog could ever do.
Over the next few weeks I hope to capture the stories of the remaining honorees.  My hope is that after seeing and hearing their stories, you will be inspired to donate whatever you can to the cause.
