Thank you for taking on this bike challenge to cure cancer. I hope the weather has been good for you and that your spirits are high. All of us at the BME lab are cheering y’all on everyday. We hope you can feel our love and encouragement for you guys. I can’t even imagine how strenuous your bike ride must be, but please never forget how many people are cheering for y’all. So many lives have been affected by your courageous act of kindness. Not only are you helping to raise money for cancer research, more importantly you are showing how compassionate and caring people can truly be. In a world where media shows the worst of human acts, you are proving that love is still alive! The heart all of y’all have for this cause is felt all around the nation. Before our lab meetings we take time to dedicate our research to someone/something and at least one of us always devotes our week of research to the riders because when we get bogged down with failures we always remember that we have you guys. We get revived every time we get updates from y’all because we know we aren’t alone in the fight against cancer. We the researchers are empowered by you riders and I hope vice versa holds true. We are all one big family that is here to encourage and push one another. I wish you the best of luck in your journey and we are all cheering for y’all! Hook’em horns! Sincerely, Stefani Maris, LSU Sharwin Khot is a UT Austin BME student and Texas 4000 rider currently on the Sierra Team!
