"For the families of people who've lost their battle with cancer, there are too many empty seats," Art says. "We all miss loved ones every day, but especially at holidays and birthdays, at family dinners—and, in my case, on Jessi's Ride." Jessi's Ride was conceived as a way to honor Jessi and to raise awareness for research into cancer prevention through diet and exercise and into cardio- and and nutrition oncology when cancer is present. More importantly, the ride celebrates was is possible for cancer patients and their families. "Jessi never stopped believing she could do this ride," Art says. "People with cancer should never stop believing, planning, hoping. Jessi never did." Jessie's ride tells the story of Jesse, and of Art. But it is also represents the stories of thousands — or even millions — of other cancer victims, patients, survivors, caregivers, families and friends. Jessie's ride is the story of never losing hope, never quitting, and never forgetting. It is also the start of a 15,000 mile long story on roads all around the United States that tells the tale of preventing cancer before it starts and fighting back when it is present. Art Whiting is available for interviews while in the Washington DC area. Contact Richard Williamson with BackBurner Marketing at (239) 770-2631 or by email at info@jessisride.com (mailto:info@ End
