Alan Steel explains to Ann Meaders why its ok to be in the back half of the pack
With only 72 riders in 2001 the Florida AIDS ride was about to die. But one AIDS survivor committed to saving the Ride by guaranteeing that 100% of the money raised would go to the charities, even if he had to come out of pocket with his own funds. This is the inspiring story of the rebirth of the Southern Most AIDS Ride from Miami to Key West as seen through the eyes of Ride Director, Glen Weinzimer, and three riders, Gabe, Kathleen and Keith.
