TIAA-CREF donates bike to cancer survivor

Jonathan Vaughters TIAA-CREF team has donated one of its Javelin team bikes to Gail Brantley, a cancer survivor from Durham North Carolina whose bike was stolen last month.

Brantley was heartbroken when her bike was stolen from her home in the Willowhaven neighbourhood of Durham on October 25. More than just a bike, it was a symbol of her survival and subsequent participation in fund-raising rides for cancer research. It was decorated with the names of 50 other cancer survivors. "What that bike means to me it can't mean that to anybody else," Brantley told the Durham Herald-Sun after the bike was stolen.
