wheels north! departure date: july 4, 2009

I met up with my friend Warren and 12 of his crazy bicycle riding friends on the misty morning of july 4th in santa rosa to see them off!  They were off on an 1,100 mile bike ride from Santa Rosa, CA to Seattle Washington to help raise funds for Hystiocytosis Research.  Histiocytosis affects 1 in 200,000 children who are born with the disease each year.  The young daughter of one of his friends suffers from hystiocytosis, inspiring the group to take on this mammoth bicycle riding venture.  They have about a week to go and I wish them well…
