Charlotte, N.C., writer and motorcycle adventurer Tamela Rich is heading out on a cross-country ride to raise money for breast cancer causes.
Along her tour, Rich will meet with breast cancer survivors and interview them for her upcoming book, “Live Full Throttle: What You Can Learn About Life From Women Who’ve Faced Cancer”.
This will be Rich’s second tour across the country. In 2010, she joined several other women motorcyclists in the “Women Who Ride Conga” Group to raise nearly $40,000. The stories she heard from travelers on that trip inspired Rich to write “Live Full Throttle”.
