105 mile bicycle
ride
October 17, 2009
Death Valley, California
“Sisters on Bikes” is a bicycling team that was
formed by 5 sisters, Diane Strickland, Elizabeth Wright, Cindy Brown, Lynn
Page Buxton & A.J. Matison to participate in a challenging, fun activity
together while raising awareness and money for juvenile diabetes research. The
hopes are to find a cure for this disease that we as sisters have lived with
since A.J. was diagnosed 35 years ago. Lynn’s son Britain, who just turned 14
years old, was also diagnosed with juvenile diabetes as a young child reinforcing
the determination to find a cure for this disease within our lifetime. Thus,
we united as a family to embrace the challenge of a 105 mile bike ride in Death
Valley to raise funds to further the research of diabetes that will lead to
finding a cure for A.J., Britain and the other millions of children and adults
that live with this disease daily.
