August 5-7, 2011
This is the 32nd annual PMC,
and our 12th PMC. In spite of various challenges and complexities in our lives
and the world in general, we remain committed to this exceptional cause and
we ask for your support. The Dana-Farber
Cancer Institute is one of America’s finest cancer research and care
centers (repeatedly ranked in the top 5 by US News and World Report for cancer care, and four-star ranked by
Charity
Navigator for its efficiency with your contributions), and your gift
allows Dana-Farber to do leading work in the field. This year Carl rode a true
“Pan-Mass” of about 300 miles, starting at the NY/MA border the day before
and continuing through the formal PMC to a crisp finish in Provincetown. With the support of our
generous donors, over the past 11 years we’ve raised over $350,000 for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute’s Jimmy Fund. Prior
Years’ rides: - 2010: David and Mike rode an uneventful PMC. Carl rode with
the Huckleberry group from the NY/MA border to the Sturbridge start. - 2009: Carl and Mike rode a smooth PMC, while David nursed his
shattered elbow. - 2008: Mike joined us for a successful, two-day Challenge. - 2007: Carl rode from the NY line. David joined him in
Sturbridge for the formal PMC. - 2006: Transcontinental.
Almost $170,000 raised. 3,600 miles over 38 riding days during one of the
hottest summers in recorded history. - 2005: we rode a bit more than the official PMC route, clocking
215 miles and adding CT to our list of states ridden. - 2004: in celebration of the historic 25th annual PMC, we rode
from David’s then-hometown of Cincinnati to join the PMC - a total of 1,054 miles over 11 days! (And
no, you don’t want to know about the saddle sores). - 2003, 2002: we rode about 300 miles by
adding an extra day and 100 miles, starting from the MA/NY state line. - 2001, 2000: we rode the official PMC route, 192 miles from
Sturbridge MA to Provincetown MA over two days. |
