"Fundraising for and riding in Bike MS has been such an important way for me to show the universe that MS will not beat me and that I will never give up the fight. The new physical challenges I had to face had me doubting that I could ever ride in Bike MS again, let alone cross the finish line. I just didn’t believe it would be possible. It was devastating. Crushing. I was in a place of darkness, despair and fear.

The recumbent trike donation and tandem invitation changed everything for me. Most importantly, they gave me HOPE – hope that I could actually tackle Bike MS: Bay to Bay on October 15-16, 2022. And I did. And as a Passport Rider, I flew to Texas for the Bike MS: Round-up Ride and I did it again on May 6-7, 2023. And I will do it yet again at Bike MS: Bay to Bay October 14 - 15, 2023."
