Ride to Pikes Peak

An opportunity for a mother and son to do something special for Polycystic Kidney Disease, for organ donation and for us.

About Me

Name:

In 1806, Zebulon Pike traveled west and sighted Pikes Peak. We biked 990 miles along his route and then ran the Pikes Peak Marathon. We are so grateful for the opportunity to raise PKD awareness. PKD caused the failure of Pat’s kidneys. A transplant saved her life eight years ago. Pat’s brothers, sisters and mother were afflicted with PKD, seven in all. Pat describes how PKD affected her life and televised news features are in the "News Coverage" link on the left margin.

New story at www.pkdcure.org website

The PKD Foundation has written and posted an article about our plans and our hopes to raise awareness for Polycystic Kidney Disease . Kara of the PKD Foundation interviewed us and wrote a story that does a great job explaining what we're doing and why. The article is posted in the Events section at www.pkdcure.org.

For more information about Pat Pokorny's life and the experience of having PKD and being in a family afflicted by PKD read Pat's PKD story in a blog posting here.
