Default Ms Bike Tour

I have signed up for this years MS Bike Tour. I have been meaning to do it for years now but something has always come up and I couldn't commit. This year I have decided to take it on no matter what. I am hoping to raise as much money as I can to help fight this disease. I have seen what this disease can do first hand as my aunt had MS for many years. She is no longer with us. My wife's cousin was also diagnosed with MS recently at the age of 33.

Please donate what you can, every little bit helps us get closer to a cure and to aid those with multiple sclerosis who need financial help to even get through life.

Visit my personal fundraising page and make a donation online.

To find out more about the RONA MS Bike Tour, please visit www.msbiketours.com.

Thank you in advance!

Good luck Ryan. I have several close friends with MS, so donate on a regular basis to the local collection. Hope you great success in raising donations.

My wife has MS she was diagnosed 13 going on 14 years ago. We lived in Edmonton when she was diagnosed I worked for Telus we had to move because she needed shots and they were not covered there. Moved to Winnipeg where they are covered I liked it there but she did not and wanted to move. so here we are in BC her MS is getting worse and there really is nothing that can be done for it the shots slow it down a bit and she hates the shots and MS. I was lay-ed off last fall and feel that it is very necessary to work close to home as things do down hill for my wife. We have three daughters ages 9,7, 4 they are my first concern.

Thanks all for helping to find a cure but no money realy gets to the one that have the disease it basicly gose to the R&D and some get respite days out of the money.
Bill
