(100 mile bike ride on Oct 9, 2004)


QUICKLINKS: DONOR FORM ~ PROGRESS ~ PICTURES ~ LETTER ~ JOANNE'S PAGE

Our team is riding in honor of Andy, a 12 year old boy with Myelodysplastic Syndrome, a type of pre-leukemia also known as Smouldering Leukemia. Click here to read more about Andy's story and visit his website at www.caringbridge.org/md/andy. As many of you know, I am also riding in memory of my mom, Eileen Gilmore, who died too young of Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. And lastly, I ride for the following friends and family members of my wonderful donors: Peggy M., Mrs. Falk, Marion & Marnie, Mrs. Mary DiBlasio, Uncle Pat Connolly, Tom Houlahan, Christian.

WE DID IT - The Seagull Century was my longest and fastest ride:
100 miles at 15.4 mph in 8 hours and 18 minutes elapsed time!
