On Saturday, September 19th, our friend and hero, Steve Bursley, will be embarking on his traditional “One Tough Ride”, dedicated to his son Nicholas who has Primary Immunodeficiency.
Steve will compete in a 508-mile nonstop bicycle race – the Silver State 508 in Nevada, which is considered to be one of the toughest endurance challenges around. Helping promote PI awareness is only half of what Steve does, he’s also an inspiration! “One Tough Ride” encourages everyone, PI patient or not, that you can achieve anything you put your mind to, even if it seems all “uphill”.
“This challenge is personal but the impact is global, and I'll be racing for all of the children and adults around the world that battle PI diseases every day!” – Steve Bursley
You can virtually experience Steve’s bike race as he will be sharing photos and posts live via his Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts all throughout this 508 mile journey! You can watch coverage of the race via webcast and even watch the actual race unfold using live track to see Steve’s team, the Racing Roosters compete!
Steve’s devotion to his son, Nicholas and his passion to bring attention and support to the PI Community is truly inspiring. We are so proud of Steve and this event, and excited for the opportunity to come along for the “ride.”
Don’t forget to connect and keep up with Steve! Support him and wish a safe “ride.” There are many different channels were you can learn more about his “One Tough Ride” event and his mission to create awareness of Primary Immunodeficiency.
