It's hard to believe this is my 4th year of riding the Courage Classic Cycling Event to raise money for Childrens Hospital Colorado. 40 miles each day in the Copper Mountain, Vail Mountain, Keystone Mountain areas at 10,000'.
My fundraising goal is $500 so would you please consider giving to this worthy cause? Thanks again for your contributions in the past and any you choose to give this year!

Daniel is battling brain cancer. In the last three years, the teenager has had six brain surgeries and 48 days of radiation. That’s 48 days and more that cancer has stolen from his childhood. For kids like Daniel, new therapies and the possibility for a cure cannot come soon enough. He courageously rode alongside his family and teammates in the tour last year to raise money for Children's Colorado patients like him.
Daniel will not be the last child to face a life-threatening illness and his family will not be the last to navigate a frightening diagnosis.
I don't know Daniel personally, but have had the privalege of working with hundreds of kids like him over the years. This is a great organization and we're lucky to have them in Denver.
