I thought I would share this inspiring story about a man with Parkinson's disease. He rode 900 miles solo through Alaska to raise money for the Davis Phinney Foundation....the same foundation that puts on the Copper Triangle in Colorado every year.

Great job Doug Bahniuk! :hello: :banana: I made a donation from the Serotta Forum.

WOW. I got Road ID to add the Davis Phinney Foundation to their list of charities. I believe it may no longer be on that list. If you are reading htis thread, please contact them and request that they add it. Livestrong gets plenty of assistance as it is. DPP needs/deserves more. I was glad to see their ad during the US Pro Cycling Challenge, or whatever they call the new race in Colorado.
