I have been racing bikes for 22 years... that sounds crazy to write that... it's been years of challenges, victories and defeats, friendships and hardships. But no year has been so meaningful to me as this season, racing as a part of Team ERRACE p/b DSO Manufacturing. To be out having fun on my bike each weekend is such a privilege. And having "pressure" on me to do well is a privilege. Because I am healthy and strong and I can do whatever I put my mind to. But Cancer is crazy. It is indiscriminate in who it effects. It is universal in who it effects. My family's cancers stories have had happy endings so far. But this is so often not the case. This year, I am racing for Debbie. I am racing for everyone who doesn't have it as good as I do. I am thankful I have this opportunity. Thank you so much for helping me ERRACE cancer!
