The Myasthenia Gravis Motorcycle Run '08 begins at Perry's
Harley-Davidson at 5331 Sprinkle Rd. in Kalamazoo, MI.
Registration is from 10:00am - 11:30am. First bikes out at 11:00am.
The registration cost is $15.00 per person, and riders are encouraged to
raise pledges to increase event proceeds, which benefit the Myasthenia
Gravis Foundation-Great Lakes Chapter.
There will be food and prizes at the finish for the riders. Prizes will be
awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishers, as well as for the top three
pledge getters. We will also raffle additional prizes at the finish.
All cycles are welcome to join us in this event to support Myasthenia
Gravis(MG).
MG is an autoimmune, neuromuscular disease that causes severe weakness of
the voluntary muscles. It strikes men, women, and children of all ages and
races. Symptoms range from fatigue and vision problems to difficulty
talking, walking, and breathing. An estimated 20/100,000 Americans suffer
from MG and the Great Lakes Chapter supports patients and families of
Michigan.
