To whom it may concern:

I would like to give my full support to the Youth Educational Sports (YES) program for their work in teaching children how to safely ride bicycles, and helping to make Bicycling part of their Physical Education, Transportation, and Sports program.

As a past Olympian, I have worked closely with the Ready Set Gold program since it began in 2006, and continues to inspired thousands of students to do their best on their Physical Fitness Tests, and make exercise part of their daily lives.

I am looking forward to joining with the YES program as it grows and helps children to ride bicycles safety, and make bicycling a sport that they can participate in.

Thank you,
Ron Skarin
