Hello!

Our friend and fellow F'r hondaron has been supporting the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation for many years. It is a worthy cause, and if you wish to help, donations are easily made via Ron's Team Page (link below). Ron's ride is in Houston, Texas on April 28, 2019.

Thanks!

Steve

Thanks Steve for posting this and thanks to those that have already donated Very Happy

It's a special day for all the participants and for the kids and families that are battling this terrible disease, which unfortunately continues to be the number 1 killer of kids by disease.

I got involved 28 years ago when the first Ride for Kids event was being planned in Houston in 1993 because I believed then as I still do today, that no parent should ever have to hear the words, " your son or daughter has cancer "

Thanks for your help,
Ronnie

Ron, I am in Albuquerque, and will be heading East (with my 900F on the trailer) at about this time. I wonder if you'd like to have another rider?

Thanks so much to everyone that has made a donation and supported this cause Very Happy

As I've said before no child or family should have to deal with a brain tumor

Thanks to funds raised and research that has been made, I've got a picture of a 3 year old with a brain tumor in my arms, Garrett who is 21 years old now and will be riding his own Harley in the event this year!!!!

Now those of you that know me, know when I cut myself I bleed Honda Red, and anyone riding a Harley normally wouldn't get me excited, but when there's a brain tumor survivor I've known for 18 years, riding a motorcycle at our annual Ride for Kids event, yeah I'm excited Very Happy
