Paul's Posse Pan-Mass Challenge 2008

Howdy,

I want to take a moment to thank each of you for once again riding in this year’s PMC and for supporting Paul’s Posse.

Just a year ago we pulled together as a team forming Paul’s Posse in support of me and my formidable battle with cancer. This year we rode together again, my cancer arrested, and our bond and determination stronger than ever.

I feel so very fortunate and blessed that I was physically able to complete my 11th PMC with all of you considering just a short 9 months ago I was recovering from surgery and a very uncertain future. Each day is an absolute blessing, and I am so very thankful.

While we certainly ride for the common good, we ride as a team united in solidarity honoring our friendship and unyielding passion to help eradicate cancer. The PMC is unquestionably a reaffirmation of the human spirit. I cannot help but hope that this collective support and focus will be rewarded someday soon with cures.

Though we exceeded our quota for crashes, broken bones, stitches, and road rash, the Posse’s spirit remained undeterred and everyone is ‘on the mend’ without serious injury. I am thrilled to report that as of this moment we have collectively raised more than $250,000.  Wow!!! Incredible!!!

Thank you so very much for your wonderful friendship.  Looking forward to riding with all of you next year and for many many years to come.

Thrive On,

Paul
