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.

On Thursday, FOX31 "Good Day Colorado" invited us on-air. FSN Rocky Mountain is going to produce a feature about our efforts for PKD and organ donation. Lots of new photos posted. We raised the PKD flag at the Rockies game. Today and tomorrow we'll have a booth at the Pikes Peak Marathon. The other 180 runners have arrived from St. Louis.

Yesterday Bill Wrede had to fly home. Thanks Bill for joining the team for these 10 days. I needed your help more than I realized. It was so much fun with you here.
