I want to introduce you all to my friend Frank. Him and I, both Dutch, met in San Francisco and made a lot of memories exploring iconic bike routes such as Paradise Loop, Skyline, Mount Tam and the Seven Sisters among others.

But life has its unexpected turns. A while back, Frank was diagnosed with ALS. The news was heart-wrenching, for Frank, his family and everyone who knows him. In true Frank spirit, he chose to turn this terrible news into a challenge: to create more, lasting memories on the bike.

Frank is now leading the largest team this year for the Tour du ALS. This isn't just any challenge - it's ascending the legendary Mont Ventoux in France, all in the name of ALS research and awareness.
