Pancreatic Cancer Support Group

My long-time boyfriend of 8 years lost his father to pancreatic cancer in late 2009. He's had a hard time dealing with his the loss of his dad, and never really talks about him too much. We recently moved from Atlanta to San Francisco so my boyfriend could start a new job. Before starting the job he decided he wanted to do something challenging and rewarding--so he decided to ride the Great Divide Mountain Bike Trail from Mexico to Canada.

When he told me he was riding to raise money for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN), I was very touched that he wanted to remember his father by using the trip to raise awareness for pancreatic cancer. And I wanted to find ways to help share his story with others who might find his efforts inspiring or helpful. He's trying to raise $1 for each mile he intends to ride. The entire official route is approximately 2754 miles long.

He's keeping a blog of his journey, if you are interested. It may be a bit behind, because he can only update it when he has an internet connection and some spare time.

Please spread the word about this great cause. And thank you for taking the time to read about my boyfriend's journey to remember his father.
