For the past four years I've Gone the Distance with my *Bike-2-Hospicare* effort in which I cycled round-trip from my house near Etna to the Hospicare facility on E King Rd. And I did this ten times each year totallying about 232 miles and 17+K ft total climb (with the assist of an E-bike.)  This year I am traveling in Europe and my son and his partner will join me to cycle from Trier to Konstanz, along the Mosel River, tasting wines and supporting Hospicare along the way. Hence my new slogan this year will be *Bike-4-Hospicare*.

We are fortunate to have an incredible Hospicare facility here in Ithaca. They were great for our family as my wife a resident there and after her death. They really need our support and it all goes for patient care! Amazing. I thank you sincerely for supporting my fund-raising effort this year for our Hospicare. Sent with a grateful embrace.
