I'm Riding For

Katie Remakel

In 2015 my family was thrust into a life I did not understand. Our daughter Katie was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma, a childhood form of bone cancer in her right knee. Unfortunately, just when her life was supposed to be taking off with freedom and fun and college, she was trapped in a world full of doctor's and extended hospital stays, and meeting other families going through similar experiences. Katie fought for 2 1/2 years with amazing grace and compassion for others. This is my 3rd year riding with this organization. As I am riding, it allows me to remember our times together as I peddle away. If you are are able to, my goal is to raise $1,000 to help in the battle against childhood cancers and hopefully make the lives of those currently going through this miserable process a little better.
