For my wife, Jacquela Leon, type 1, for Tim Bajarin, type 2, for the Singhs, the Teltows, Susan Schreiner, Dan Rosenbaum, and my brother Bob, sister-in-law Karen, Brody and Harley — thank you for powering this ride to the finish line in the Tour de Cure to stop diabetes.

And just as I crossed the finish line, my cousin Ellen Chodorow took me over another finish line — raising $1,000 to stop diabetes. There are not words enough to say thank you.

Steven rode 48 miles after training for months with Team Schwab — special thanks to Jim and Jason.

Here’s the route:
