Our Sponsor: Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers, https://rockymountaincancercenters.com/
Too often we as master bike racers get caught up in our
equipment sponsors, who is gives us a discount on gear or some other ego
related aspect of our sport. We are fortunate however to have a sponsor that
means so much more than that to all of us, our community, our families and
friends.
We have all been touched by cancer if not directly then
with someone close to us. The pain, fear of the unknown, learning to live with
constant Dr. appointments and often very invasive and expensive treatments can
be overwhelming and traumatic not only for the patient but family, friends and
care givers.
Speaking from direct experience, my father died from
cancer but was a patient at the Boulder Rocky Mountain Cancer Center for many
years, I can tell you this group of doctors, their supporting staff and all the
people involved made a difference. They
were understanding but direct and honest in their dealings with us. They
provided support on an emotional level, with great medicine, kind words and
always a smile.
The facility was welcoming and never felt institutional.
Drug therapies can be tiresome and make you feel like a pin cushion but somehow
the Rocky Mountain Cancer Center in Boulder, with its great windows facing our
mountains, good sunlight and a relaxed atmosphere made it all bearable.
While we hope you never have to go through a battle with
cancer if you do think of these folks. They have many centers throughout the
front range and we can vouch for their expertise and warmth.
We are proud to represent them in our sport and look
forward to wearing their colors for many years to come.
