Lance Armstrong at Ride 4 Yellow



5 Years ago in August of 2005 we interned my Dad who had died of lung cancer. He never smoked, was super fit and the cancer appeared out of nowhere. We were both big supporters of Lance and watched the tour together every summer.

By coincidence, the day we found out he had lung cancer, cycling photographer Graham Watson  released this photo as a 2005 limited edition print – only 200 and all signed by Lance.
I bought it for my Dad but he died before he got to see it.
We donated the print to the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center as an inspiration to all those who are trying to recover.
As one of the organizer/creators of the event I couldn’t be happier. This was a shit-ton of work but the committee and community did everything needed to put on a great event.
I think my Dad would have really enjoyed the Ride 4 Yellow event.
