A Cycling Opportunity Hitting Close to Home
My grandmother passed of colon cancer last week, brought on by Crohn's disease. I was the only member in my immediate family to inherit the illness (in the form of Ulcerative Colitis). So for once I am asking my friends to join me June 4 in Virginia to raise funds for research that may one day find a cure.
