The Journey to Moab…
A cancer survivor and amputee’s ride to raise money for the
Children’s Cancer Fund of New Mexico.
Brett Weitzel, 30, of Albuquerque, NM, will launch Monopod Mountain Bike Madness, a week-long, 215-mile ride from Telluride, Colorado to Moab, Utah. On June 7, 2008 he will face this challenge just eight months after having his right leg amputated, following a 13-year battle with cancer. Along with long time girlfriend, close friends and family he is taking on this feat as a way to emerge from cancer as his athletic self and to start helping others believe that anything is possible.
