Riding for my mom, and for everyone affected by ALS
This summer, I am riding the ALS TDI Tri-State Trek in honor and in memory of my mom, Mary Lou Watkins to find an effective treatment for ALS.Mary Lou was diagnosed with ALS in August, 2009, and lost her battle with the disease on January 23, 2011.ALS is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that attacks motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord, first causing muscle weakness and ultimately affecting speech, swallowing, and respiratory function. ALS is usually fatal within 3-5 years, and there are NO effective treatments. Please RIDE, VOLUNTEER, or DONATE to the Tri-State Trek to support the work of the ALS Therapy Development Institute, the world's largest ALS research center.ALS is not incurable; it is underfunded!

Riding to Fund ALS Research
Hello Everyone,As we enter into June, I'm looking forward to riding in another Tri-State Trek.  I rode my first Trek in 2009 in honor of my sister Annie, and my cousin Bob, both of whom passed away from ALS.  The funds raised from this ride support the research being done at ALS Therapy Development Institute. They are working hard to develop treatment options and find a cure for this awful neurodegenerative disease.  With federal research funding being cut left and right, the need for private funding is more important than ever.  Please join me in supporting this cause that is close to my heart.    Mimi

Riding to End ALS
Join me in the fight against ALS! I'm gearing up for a 200-mile bike ride to raise funds for ALS TDI, a leading biotech research nonprofit dedicated to finding a cure for ALS. Every pedal I take honors the memory of my mother-in-law and supports research to bring hope to those battling this devastating disease. Your donation will make a tangible difference in the lives of ALS patients and their families. Let's ride together towards a future without ALS!
