About me!

Rennie Young: I retired from Honda Canada Inc. last December after 26 years, 17 years with the military prior to that. Also, I turned 65 Sept. 10. "I wanted to do one thing in my life that would make a difference and I felt this was IT"! I surpassed my fund raising goal of $5,000. I want to thank all who donated to the cause on my behalf. I only started my fund raising on July 22 and found everyone very eager to contribute as just about everybody has been touched by Cancer. It is a horrific disease and we have to make it history!

Day - 14, Last day and Lance Armstron Challenge day

I skipped Day 13, Saturday as it was just an R&R day for me. Today was the Lance Armstrong Live Strong Challenge. The young 14 year old Peter Gatti and his family we flew down got to meet Lance yesterday on a private ride and he rode the 45 mile loop today. My friend an neighbor Peter McCormick was responsible for arranging all this. Young Peter is fighting cancer and lost one of his best friends just a few weeks ago, as you can see he is dedicating this ride to his lost friend. I managed to walk down to Mellow Johnney's Bike Shop which is owned by Lance, it is amazing! My bike is all packed up and ready for my shuttle tomorrow morning to the airport. We are having a wrap up dinner reception tonight at Lance's restaurant. Really looking forward to getting home since leaving October 8.
