Robert DeMartini's Ride

Why I Ride ...

2010 will be the fourth year I participate in the 200+ mile two day fundraising ride.


The picture on the left is the group I ride with at last year's event.  We are 190 miles from the start and only 10 miles from the finish in Provincetown. Most of us are like horses that can smell the barn�.. or� we smell like horses, I can't recall which it was.

For many of you this will be your 4th year supporting the event as well since I have benefitted from many returning sponsors. You have helped me raise nearly $30 K and this year I am aiming to raise over $7500.  
 With corporate sponsorship now fully covering the significant costs of the event, 100% of your donations go directly to the Jimmy Fund and the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. New Balance will again be a corporate sponsor to help continue this great event and ensure that 100% of individual donations go to work to beat Cancer.

This event continues to amaze me as a participant.  The logistics of housing, feeding, routing and leading 6,000 riders is an incredible undertaking and quite a sight to see. The attitude and spirit that exists with the nearly 4,000 volunteers is truly unbelievable.  At meals, rest stops, and watering zones and in every town, there are volunteers willing to provide you a snack, drink or words of encouragement. 


The most touching and motivating sight, which is not at all rare, are the cancer survivors, who line the route, thanking the riders for raising the funds. Old men, young kids, Moms and Dads, most with pictures of them in one stage or another of beating cancer are cheering you on to help beat this disease in our lifetime


Your donations are appreciated and are making a difference.


Thank you for your support



Sincerely,

Rob DeMartini
