TANIA, HOLDING OUR "MOST IMPROVED TEAM" PLAQUE AT THE 2002 C2S AWARDS CEREMONY, IS OUR PEDAL PARTNER.  IT'S FOR TANIA AND THOUSANDS LIKE HER THAT WE RIDE.

Tania (Patrick's wife, Ally's mom, Lee and Steve's daughter) is the inspiration for Team Tania. Like too many other young people, Tania has Multiple Sclerosis. Yet, thanks to new treatment options, Tania has been able to ride tandem with Patrick in the last 5 City to Shore Bike Tours. While recent strides have been made in the treatment of MS, the devastating effects of this disease continue to impact the lives of people just like Tania. We know a cure is close-at-hand. Until we get there, Team Tania will continue our efforts to offer the funding, hope and emotional support that comes from our participation in the Bike Tour.
