Why do we ride?
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, often disabling disease of the
central nervous system. The symptoms include blurred or double vision,
numbness or tingling in the limbs and can become as severe as paralysis
or total loss of vision. Diagnosis usually occurs between the ages of 15
and 50, but the unpredictable physical and emotional effects are
life-long. We ride for those who cannot. We ride to find a cure. We ride
to create a world free of multiple sclerosis.
