Launch of Closer By The Mile

On the cusp of summer I am excited to announce the publication of my book, which is the story of the Pan-Mass Challenge!



Closer By The Mile is now available on Amazon, http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_nos...

While this is very exciting for myself as a debut writer, it's not about me. Most importantly, I trust you will find I've threaded together many back stories of riders, volunteers, and families who benefit from the practitioners and research which the PMC supports at Boston's Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in a way that will inspire others to the cause.
 
Here also is a preview if you'd like to peek - https://www.createspace.com/Preview/1...

My wife Denise and I will ride again this year, and perhaps we will see some of you en route.

I am donating 75 percent of net proceeds from this earmarked to ovarian cancer research in my mother's memory. Have a great start to your summer season, wherever it leads, and I hope you enjoy this book.



Ride on!
