Marley McLaughlin
Hi, I’m the Amazing Princess Marley! As many of you know, I was diagnosed with brain cancer at age 2. Not only did I confront this with all my might but I kicked cancer’s ass (my Dad said that bad word not me). Until last year, I was cancer-free. It pains me to tell you […]
Liz & TJ Underhill
Let the games begin Liz & TJ Underhill There is nothing our family loves more than a good wager on something, and there really isn’t anything we won’t bet on. So when TJ and I were riding at the Tour de Pier – of course there needed to be a wager. TJ and I believe strongly in […]

Along with the thousands of others who show up for this ride. On May 17th 2008, my father, Richard Varela, lost his battle with […]
Sam & Kay Sheth
We had heard of Tour de Pier in the beginning stages, when it was first being conceived. It sounded like a fun, great event, but also a cathartic, healthy way to do something positive while channeling all of our family and friends who have been touched by cancer. It was the perfect fit after losing […]
Erin Pieronek
This Saturday morning I read an essay by a woman and really I wanted to know her. She was a children’s book author and I’m a book worm, clearly a fit. She wrote so articulately I just thought we could be great friends if things were different. Sadly it was too late, Amy Krouse Rosenthal […]

Whether it’s an aunt, uncle, mother in law or friend, everyone is touched by cancer. Lung, colon, breast, brain, pancreatic. The list goes on and on. Cancer doesn’t care about your age, your race, your gender, or your politics. I ride in the Tour de Pier because it is a great event that supports the […]
