Greetings,

Welcome to my fundraising page. Thank you for taking the time to consider sponsoring me in the 8th Annual Reid's Ride.  This years ride will commence Sunday July 15 when myself and hundreds of other riders will take to the streets of the North Shore in what has become a staple event throughout the local community. Destination: Stage Fort Park, Gloucester MA.

As most who visit this page already know, Reid was my best friend. We shared a truly unique friendship dating back to our middle school years, some would say we were brothers more than friends. I met Reid in the 7th grade when I moved to Lynnfield. I knew that if I could find just one friend to ease the transition, everything would be allright. Reid was that person and from there grew a rare friendship that I continue to cherish this day.

I cannot believe this will be the 8th year we are riding. Who knows how many cancer patients have beneftied and will continue to benefit from this research. What an excellent way to continue Reid's legacy and celebrate his life. And what a privileage it has been to be a part of this foundation as it continues to grow and fulfill it's missions of supporting cancer research and provide academic scholarships to college bound high school seniors.

If you wish to sponsor me in this 28 mile Bike-A-Thon, you can do so safely and securely right here on this page. The success of this event is thanks to those like yourself who sponsor a rider. You'll see a substantial off-line contribution listed below. That is thanks to many friends and family who came out and enjoyed a night of laughter at the 4th Annual Reid's Ride Comedy Fundraiser held by myself and Reid's Cousin, Meredith Greeno. If you're one of those who attended, I ask that you don't sponsor me here, as you already have. Instead you may be interested in pumping up those tires and joining us on July 15th...that would be awesome.

The 8th Annual Reid's Ride proves to be bigger than ever; thank you for visiting my page and considering to become a part of the driving force in the quest to eliminate cancers striking young adults.
