Those who know me know I like to road bike, despite what Mitch Henck thinks about bikers! Each year I do a charity ride for Juvenile Diabetes Research. This ride is normally in excess of 100 miles in one day. This year my ride is scheduled for Death Valley in October.
If you are interested in contributing to this cause, please go to www.jdrfride.com/donate; search for Bob Gorsuch. My oldest grandchild contracted Type 1 diabetes at age 8 and is now entering his 3rd year at UW - Madison. Believe me, type 1 diabetes is a "silent" disease that impacts the lives of these young people and their families. We feel we are getting close to a "cure". But it takes lots of $$$$ for the research.
