DESCRIPTION:
Dear Ladies of Team REP, family, and friends,

As with many of you, cycling has provided me with countless joys, opportunities, memories, and great lifelong friends.

One of these friends, a teammate from the Motofish Racing Team that sponsored my 2012/2013 cyclocross season, needs help. Mark and Sarah Bender were spending last week in Hawaii to celebrate their 15th wedding anniversary. They left their 4 boys home. On their last day, Mark suffered a catastrophic injury, a C6/7 complete spinal cord injury. He had emergency surgery, and is recovering in a Hawaii ICU for what they think will be at least 2 weeks before he is stable enough to return home.

For those of you that know Mark, you know that he and Sarah lived and breathed cycling, as well as family and community. My heart aches for what they are going through now, and for what they will face in the future.

From today until the end of April, Team REP, along with the generous support of our team sponsors Doma Coffee Roasting and Vertical Earth, is holding a La Bicicletta coffee fundraiser.

All proceeds from every $12.50 (plus 6% Idaho sales tax) bag of coffee we (Team REP and VE) sell will go directly to the Bender family.


Thanks, all. Let's reach out.
