To My Supporters - THANK YOU!


On behalf of myself, Samuel and Sharon, thank you in advance for your support!

If you are donating in memory of someone who is either living with HIV, or died from AIDS, please let me know their names so I can honor them by putting a red ribbon on my bike.

Note: Only larger donors and supporters are listed below. There have been hundreds of other sponsors who gave what they could, and are not forgotten. My appreciation goes to ALL the friends, acquaintances, companies, riders, crew members, volunteers and strangers, who have donated since my first ride in 1999. Especially during 2001, where you made it possible for me to complete all seven Rides produced that year.

More importantly, you made a huge difference in a lot of lives, helped ease a lot of suffering, and brought us closer to a vaccine. Your generosity of spirit, and compassion are a testament to what the Rides are all about. I am honored to have been touched by each of you.

Special Thanks to:
