My Story
I was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer in 2002. I was lucky - I'm a survivor. About 1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with Prostate Cancer during their lifetime. When I learned that many have inadequate health insurance to even get screened, and consequently may die of the disease, I knew I should do something to help. So I do solo, unsupported, multi-state bike rides across many parts of this country to raise important funding! Every pedal stroke is for the men who need help and support from the One-in-Six Foundation. These rides are my way of saying: "You're not alone."

About 1-in-6
The 1-in-6 Foundation provides free, support to men and their partners facing prostate cancer. The money Triker Greg has raised has helped fund free PSA tests for men who are uninsured or underinsured; it has helped provide emotional support and assistance for prostate cancer patients and their families; and the funds also have helped cover the cost of diagnostic MRI’s for high risk patients who would not otherwise receive them.
