In the past decade or so, I’ve made regular contributions to a variety of good causes as I’m sure many of you have as well. Some of my meager disposable income has gone to great charities such as the American Lung Association and the American Diabetes Association and special events like the Breast Cancer Three Day. A few years back, a friend approached me about sponsoring him in a five day bike ride across the state of Minnesota called the MS Tram. I’d heard promos about it on the radio, and it sounded like an amazing event, so I got out my wallet and chipped in.  To be perfectly honest, I didn’t even have a clue what Multiple Sclerosis was when I made the donation.

Today... I have a clue.

Please join me as I take on the disease and move forward.

Dinner in Atlantic, IA (April 2009) with Phil Keoghan, host of The Amazing Race. I did a short bike ride with him as part of his 3500 mile ride across America to raise funds for MS!
