Nyack Man Reaches Pennsylvania on Day 1 of 900-mile Charity Ride

Dave Nazaroff of Nyack set off on his bicycle Sunday morning for a six-day, 900-mile journey for a special 11-year-old girl. This week he bikes from Nyack, NY to Georgia for the charity Ride to Give's recipient, Callie Truelove, who suffers from Williams Syndrome, a heart defect. 

Nazaroff made it to his first destination, Limerick, PA and will continue on to Gainesville, GA this week. The Ride to Give is a 501(c)3 non-profit that raises funds and awareness for children with long-term illnesses and special needs. Nazaroff is the co-founder.

Nazaroff's ride to Gainesville, GA will culminate with a presentation of a check to Callie for her medical bills and other expenses. Ride to Give also partners with Sunshine on a Ranney Day (SOARD) who will give Callie a bedroom makeover.
