Team Sarcoma/LMSarcoma Direct Research Foundation (LMSdr)

Suzanne Kurtz, founder of LMSarcoma Direct Research Foundation formed a bike ride in Tulsa, Oklahoma as part of Team Sarcoma 2006. The mission of LMSdr is to assure the development of the means to cure and control the disease known as Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) and to improve the quality of life for those with this disease until the cure is found. Here's a portion of a note that we received from her after the Team Sarcoma/LMSdr event was over, "There were 19 of us, all ages and we rode around Riverside which is a bike path along our river... It was small and just for fun, but our way of being in touch with your big team as you rode the real ride. The total course is only 5 miles long so it wasn't a huge ride (little kids along). But it was fun and I can visualize that next year we are going to make a big deal out of it. This was really something I kinda 'threw together'... we were just an unorganized rag-tag bunch having fun. but next year I intend to make it bigger and more professional. Thanks so much for starting this... I didn't know how much fun it would be." Here's a photo of Suzanne and some of the Team Sarcoma/LMSdr's riders.
