His goal was 125,000 miles in 125 days, and not only did he meet it, he exceeded it, riding a staggering 145,000 miles in 145 days on a brand-new 2025 Indian Pursuit with the new PowerPlus 112!

He continued his ride, riding through the pain, all for the cause. Pat’s ride wasn’t just about the miles—it was about making a difference for those affected by Myotonic Dystrophy, a rare genetic disorder that impacts muscle function, including the heart, brain, lungs and eyes.
