i understand what you are saying.i think a ride such as this would bring to the forefront how important finding a cure for this disease is.i think survivors would be very supportive as they realize the reality of its effects.i don´t know what the cancer society would object to as this would bring out what can be lost literally.if it is realized this is for a good cause i don´t feel it would put women back in the biking world because of the good it is intended to do.
