Text Box: The Eastern Iowa Ride to Cure Diabetes Team has begun training and fundraising for the 2008 Ride in Whitefish Montana. Since its founding in 1970 by parents of children with type 1 diabetes, JDRF has awarded more than $1.16 billion to diabetes research, including more than $137 million in FY2007. The Ride is fast becoming one of JDRF's top fundraising events. Some riders have personal commitments to keep fighting for a cure; others are simply looking for a positive way to give back to their community; all are inspired to meet the challenge. Whatever your motive, the Ride is an unforgettable experience that will leave you with a feeling of great satisfaction and that will bring us closer to a cure for diabetes, one pedal stroke at a time.
