Our personal message:

 

This summer I'll be riding the Courage Classic for the second time with a team from the Harmon Bike Club.  The Courage Classic is a 3-day bicycle ride through three mountain passes that raises money for the Child Abuse Intervention Department at Mary Bridge Children's Hospital.  The Courage Classic is the largest source of funding for this program and 100% of every donation provides services that are available at no cost to any abused or maltreated child and family in Pierce County.  

You can help these kids by making a donation through this site. It's simple, fast and totally secure.

 

Once again, I'm planning to ride my Xtracycle over the mountains.  HOWEVER, since many of you have asked, I will ride our new 70-pound, kid-hauling "Bucket Bike" if I can raise more than I did last year.  Let's do this!

Thanks for your support!

 

-Matt
