Ride For Kids Year End Results for 2011

[Popeye]

First, I would just like to say thank you to anyone who supports Ride For Kids.  We had another
great year.  RFK really is making a difference, kids are living longer but sadly we are still losing kids.
The research that RFK funds will one day find the cause and cure of pediatric brain tumors.


                    For the year, our 40 rides across the country raised $4,415,537.00


Thanks again,

Good job.

Well done to all

I used to do the RFK, but there were so many irresponsible riders or maybe they were not familiar with group riding, I just send a check now.

Back in the nineties six bikes went down when a guy did a wheelie and lost control. This was on a ride at Domino Farms. Nice charity, but I don't want to be near an idiot on a motorcycle.

However 4.4 million is never enough,....these kids need expensive treatments and research doesn't come cheap.

A lesson to be learned.  Never stack your bikes close together at a place called Domino Farms...
