Mike Stieglitz: always my coach, mentor, and friend
Bob Rubey: officially introduced me to proper cycling while rooming together at SIU
Dave Morgan, Darren & Rebecca Durrett, and Young Life; great people
for a great cause!
Duct Tape People (Dr. Randy, Dr. Dr. Himmelsehr, Dr.
Palacios, Dr. Sherman, Logan Sherman, John Sutherland, Darci West): those attempt
to keep me from falling apart, but when I do, put me back together…physically
and psychologically.

Smith, Mike Gibson, Khai Harbut, Jamie Shaw, Joseph Murphy, Art Fairchild

The support of those who believed and stuck by me… I’m sorry
for those who chose not to.
AND OF COURSE…The Ride Of Silence. Those who keep it
together (Tim Potter, Elizabeth Adamcyzk, Benoit Valin, J. Steve, Mark Hagar,
and every local director around the planet!) and the thousands who have lost
their lives legally sharing the road with the motorist that killed.
THANK YOU!
