Elaine Shapiro's Ride
Why I Ride ...
Dear Family and Friends:
This will be my second year riding in the Pan Mass Challenge. Though this has been a very hectic and exciting time for me I have continued to ride my bike and raise funds for cancer research in memory of my late husband, Barry Fox.
Many of you know that last year when I decided to ride I didn't even own a bike. I had to go out and buy a bike, a helmet and those wretched bike shorts. I've long since gotten over the embarrassment of sporting spandex in public. I am willing to throw fashion to the wind because last year the PMC contributed $30 million (100 percent of every rider-raised dollar) to cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. It felt great to be a part of something so monumental and I have all of you to thank!
