Team IMR Vini Velo Vici – finishing Peletonia 2015

Institute for Materials Research members at the Nanotech West (NTW) Lab formed a peloton for Pelotonia 2015 and raised over $15,000 for Cancer Research at The James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Center.

“Team IMR” – Veni Velo Vici was comprised of 7 IMR members and 6 friends and family.  Riders from IMR/NTW were Derek Hansford and Aimee Price, and “virtual riders” John Carlin, Robert Davis, Derek Ditmer, David Hollingshead, and Mary McCleery. Other members of the team were George Conti, Mark Corroto, Melinda Corroto, Kristen Huener Henney, John Price, and Kevin McCleery. The riders all pedaled 100 miles on their bicycles on August 8 from downtown Columbus to Kenyon College, finishing triumphantly together.

Team IMR needs more riders, virtual riders, and volunteers for 2016! If you are interested in helping Team IMR break its goal of $16,000 in 2016 contact Peloton Captain and IMR Member of the Technical Staff Aimee Price at price.798@osu.edu.
