The cause
The ride supports Vann, a 6-year-old, and his family. Per the organizer, back pain led doctors to find six fractures in his spine, and he was then diagnosed with B-cell leukemia. He started treatment in March 2026, including the harsh chemotherapy known as the “Red Devil,” and faces at least two more years of treatment. He loves monster trucks and motorcycles. Money raised goes toward the family’s medical and logistical needs.
Host
