About Me (and the PMC)
What's new?
  I've been riding the PMC since 1991, with the exception of 1998 when an injury kept me off the bike for 9 months (see the Story Time tab). That year, I volunteered, and still raised money. Well, and then there was 2018 when I rode on a stationary bike due to another injury... To date, I've raised over $330K for the PMC.

Since 2005 (with one exception), I've ridden a remote PMC, all in California, with one bonus ride in France in 2006.

By profession, I'm a retired software engineer. As well, I've been a volunteer firefighter since 2000, running all sorts of incidents from EMS to vehicle accidents to fires.

        8/17, the ride was yesterday. The story, entitled Lemons, can be found following that link. There's still time until mid-October to donate! Let's crush this goal.

        It's August, 2025. I'm planning a very tough ride for August 16th as it's been a very tough summer: my wife Beth was diagnosed with breast cancer and is working her way through treatment. The good news is that it was an early catch and everything points at a full recovery. But it's a bumpy road ahead. I have also raised my goal to $20,000.

      Goal:     $20000
