INTERVIEW | LEAVE IT ON THE ROAD “To spread a message, you need a way to grab people’s attention, and a bike ride that pushes the limits of human endurance is a great way to do that. I thought maybe if patients and survivors saw what I was doing, that show of support might encourage them during their battle. When my mother was diagnosed, my worst fear was losing her. When Mike’s father passed away in 2011, I was watching my best friend live out my worst nightmare, and I couldn’t stand by and watch, so we came up with Leave It On The Road.” In just a few days, Andrew Hudon and Michael Tabtabai will set off on a journey to ride 3,500 miles in 24 days, with a mission to raise awareness for the fight against colon cancer. They were kind enough to answer some questions about their journey in an exclusive interview just for the blog.  Read the full INTERVIEW | LEAVE IT ON THE ROAD.
