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.

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.

Love the Cardinals and Rams

PKD pre-game events at the Cardinals v. Phillies game on August 2 are really looking fun. 50 people from our St. Louis PKD Chapter will visit the field before the game. Then during pre-game ceremonies PKD and the Ride to Pikes Peak will be recognized. Look for coverage on FSN Midwest.
On August 3rd, the first day of the ride starts at 7:30am. Riding out of Fort Bellefontaine we will stop at Rams Training Camp for a 20mile water stop. We are really grateful to the Rams for helping us raise awareness and funds for PKD.
