Pablove/National Brain Tumor Society: Ride for a Common Cause
Event Details
In October 2014, two cyclists crossed paths at Mellow Johnny’s Bike Shop in Austin Texas. In a Team Kermit T-shirt was Steven Branfman, Captain and Founder of Team Kermit. Jeff Castelaz, Co-Founder and Chairman of the Board of The Pablove Foundation, was wearing Pablove. Little did they know who the other person was. Hands were extended, and a conversation ensued. A random meeting of two fathers who discovered that they shared the common bond of having had children who have passed away from cancer. Both had turned their passion for cycling into a vehicle to express their anger and grief. Both are honoring the memory of their children and countless others by raising millions of dollars for cancer research and treatment, and to support those facing cancer today.
Please join Jeff and Steven on Sunday, March 19 as Pablove and Team Kermit join forces for our second annual Ride For A Common Cause to benefit The Pablove Foundation and the National Brain Tumor Society.
