I, Bike Mike have been cycling in this MS Mid-Jersey Chapter bike tour since 1993. Also cycle in the MS Greater North Jersey Chapter bike tour that runs in September. Been cycling in MS bike tour since 1990. To help raise money for Multiple Sclerosis. A fun thing for a great cause/

Me am blind in right eye, deaf in right ear, half deaf with a hearing-aid in left ear and wear glasses just for left eye. Was born like this. But it does not stop me from cycling. Legally blind in the state of NJ. I might have crashed, went the wrong way, rode in bad weather. But I got right up and kept on going. Should never give up. I don't!!


The bike tour is a safe tour. Anyone can cycle in whatever course you pick. Got EMS & EMT, sag wagon, bike repair trucks up and down the course, music, good food, massage, rest stop lunch spots and more.

I like to see Fox 5 NY Copter find me on my bicycle thursday, May 8, 2008. I could either be in Bloomfield or in Montclair. If "Good Day New York" wants me to cycle at a certain time. I will in this area. I will say what I will wear that day.

Maybe I will see you in the bike tour.
