Inside 1986, Greg LeMond became the first American to win the largest single annual sporting event inside the world, the Tour de France. LeMond went on to taste victory again in the 1989 Tour de France, and again one month later in the 1989 World Championships. Then, as a final coup previous to retiring from competitive cycling, LeMond won another historic Tour de France for the third era in 1990.
LeMond's legend has still been measured by his unrivaled levels of courage and tenacity and at present, 20 years following the date of his first Tour de France triumph, he has taken on an together courageous challenge-to find a treatment for diabetes.
Greg LeMond joins the American Diabetes Association (ADA) because the Honorary Chairperson for Tour de Cure, the Association's premiere annual cycling event, which raises money for diabetes research, truth, advocacy and public awareness efforts. Tour de Treat takes place nationwide and is a ride-not a race-that encourages public to dust off their bicycles and join thousands of other riders who are pedaling for a therapy.
"I am proud to be the Honorary Chairperson for ADA's Tour de Therapy event," says LeMond. "The Tour de Therapy is one powerful way for every of us to become champions inside the fight against diabetes."
Nearly 21 million children and adults have diabetes, a 14 percent increase since 2003. Another 41 million people are at risk for developing variety 2 diabetes. Diabetes is the fifth leading cause of death by illness inside the United States.
Greg LeMond will be on hand to present the top Tour de Cure fundraisers using the Champion for Diabetes Award. Top fundraisers will also qualify to win one of a few official LeMond Bicycles donated by the champion himself.
The Tour de Treat national presenting sponsor is Bristol-Myers Squibb Company. Other sponsors include Gold's Gym, Performance Bicycles, LeMond Fitness, Discovery Health Channel, and LeMond Racing Cycles-the official bicycle of the Tour de Heal.
