Always chasing something or someone.
"Big Al"
I ride and used to race inspired by the memory of my step-dad Alvin Drake who succumbed to cancer in 2005. He was a lover of bikes and a staunch supporter of my racing.

Todd,
Thank you very much for the kind words.
Treatment starts next week, 6 weeks of radiation. The surgery left no visible tumor for chemo treatment, I'm ok with that. :)
Look forward to seeing you and the family at the races in a few months.
Mike
