Bikers for Babies Follow-Up

Well, the ride was a great success! I raised lots of money for march of dimes and had a great day on the bike. My tour for the day was just over 350 miles! My back side's a little sore but it was all worth it.

While I was there I met Dee Snider, who is one of the celebrity spokespersons. I asked him what his connection was other than he's a biker and thought it was a good cause. It turns out that two of his four kids spent time in NICU when they were born. Both made it out alive.

I told him he was fortunate, as my son did not and showed him my helmet. On it I painted "Today I ride for Daniel. June 3-16, 2003"

He was definitely moved by it and was happy to pose for the photo you see here. Thanks for all you're doing Dee.

In case you missed it, my fundraising page is still ongoing here.
