As Chairman for The 2009 Ride for Semper Fi I would like to thank everyone for their generous and giving spirit during these difficult times.  The contributions from our donors combined with the efforts of the finest team of riders that could be put together resulted in over $147 thousand dollars being donated to our friends at the Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund.

I would also like to thank our sponsors;  Wells Fargo,DNA Cycles, Rural Electric, Syn-Apps, The Arizona Diamondbacks, Fifth Element Coaching, PING, Healthquest, RBJones Photography, InkLing, and Specialized.  Without these sponsors this event could have never taken place.  Each of these sponsors stepped forward and offered a helping hand without asking anything in return.  They are without a doubt great Americans!

For 2010 plan on seeing us once again training on the roads of Arizona!  We will once again ride in support of our friends at the Injured Marine Semper Fi fund and the heroes they support.  We are even considering putting together a team California…stay tuned! If you have an interest in sponsoring or riding in 2010 please feel free to contact us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

Finally, I would like to encourage everyone to take a few moments and visit the Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund website ( www.semperfifund.org ).  On the website you will be able to see first hand what your donations are doing to change the lives of heroes.  The team at the IMSFF is dedicated to changing lives and creating miracles for those who have sacrificed so much for our liberti es and freedom. In the short fives years they have been in existence they have given more than 15000 grants totaling more than 33 million dollars.  They are making a difference every single day!

Until next year, God Bless and Semper Fi
