CDT Team Blog Introduction Post

This will be my second year participating in the Chasing Daylight Tour and I am very excited about the West Coast aspect of it. The hills will be challenging, but I believe we will be paid off with the amazing views along the route. I have been with KPMG going on three years and I started first in the audit practice until July, 2010 when I transferred to the transaction services practice.

During my initial year of employment with KPMG, I saw an advertisement for the 2008 Chasing Daylight Tour which sparked my interest. I did not even own a road bike at the time and I decided to sit out that year since there were only two months until the tour took place. I started cycling on the weekends and really ramped up the training in the summer of 2009 prior to participating in the 2009 Chasing Daylight Tour from Montvale, NJ to Virginia Beach, VA. The experience was priceless and therefore I am returning to do it again. There are many cancer victims and survivors that I am riding for this year and I feel this is one thing I can do to help the people who are affected by this awful disease.
