For those of you guys that dont know, I am Diabetic, I have been for the last 16 years, diagnosed when I was 6 years old. Dont feel bad for me, iv been over that for a long time. Anyways, Im going on a motorcycle ride called B.A.D (Bikers Against Diabetes) the goals are to raise awareness, and support research.

So on this ride people will sponsor me!

I am proud to let you know that I will be "B.A.D." in the fight against diabetes by riding in Rip's B.A.D. Ride, a fund-raising event of the American Diabetes Association.
