Welcome to the Do It for Aaron team home page! Our team is participating in this extraordinary event for our 6th consecutive summer. It is our honor to ride once again in loving memory of Aaron Sain who died at the age of 18 in the summer of 2004 as a result of a rare brain cancer (chordoma). It is Aaron's courageous spirit that spurs us on to help seek a cure for this relentless disease called cancer that has claimed so many lives and affected almost all of us in some personal way. Please support our team again this summer as we ride in loving memory of Aaron and all those whose lives have been touched by cancer. It is truly through our grassroots efforts that adequate research might be done to bring about that earth-shattering discovery that will defeat this disease. Our team says thank you. . . Aaron says thank you.  Most sincerely, Karen Sain
