Team FPMA Rides Again and Goes National!

 

On Sunday March 25, 2018 the Florida Podiatric Medical Association’s (FPMA) cycling team participated in the American Diabetes Association’s cycling fund-raising event, the Tour de Cure, in Lake Nona (Orlando), Florida. This year, the team expanded from 13 to 18 members, including Dr. John Brummer from New York. Each cyclist pedaled either 25, 50, 63 or 101 miles. Team FPMA raised over $17,000 for the ADA this year. Dr. Andy Levy from Jupiter, FL raised $10,000!

 

Kneeling: Leo Bondi, Front Row (L-R): Dr. Nick Przystawski, Vickie Lingerfelt, Dr. Glenn Osterweil, Miriam Armstrong, Dr. Robert Iannacone, Stacy Iannacone, Dr. Bill Salcedo, Christina Bondi, Back Row: Dr. Andy Levy, Tim Smythe, and Dr. Alissa Zdancewicz.

 

Dr. Robert A. Iannacone said, “We had almost all our members return this year, and expanded the team by about 40%. Next year, we will make a greater push to include podiatrists and their friends and family from across the country to get out of the cold and join us for a weekend of cycling and comradery.”
