I am riding in El Tour de Tucson,32 mile ride, to honor the memory of my late team captain, Educardo Aguirre. He aways had a smile on his face and would encourage me when I wanted to stop. When I finished the race last year, a senior man finishing, fell down. We are pretty tired at the end of the race and this man could not walk. Eduardo pushed his wheelchair to the man so he could use it and get to the aide tent. This man was an inspiration who was taken too soon by suicide. Thank you for your support of my ride and the future Eduardo Aguirre Adaptive Cycling Center!
