Way to go Brian!

"Perhaps the most inspiring of the weekend's athletes was Brian Culbert, racing in the male 45-49 category. While is racing luck wasn't with him---he pulled out after finishing nine laps in 12 hours, he's still a hero as he uses his mountain bike races as pledge rides to raise money for charity. Last year he raised some $200,000. This year he's up to $20,000 with his that money destined to go to a Cambodian children's hospital for burn victims. Earlier this year he raced the Trans Rockies where he broke his hand on the fifth day of the seven-day race. Quit? No way. He soldiered on and finished."
