Remembering Teresa

The Lancette Memorial Ride is the vision of the friends and family of avid cyclist Teresa Wilson Beiser who tragically lost her life in 2009 when her estranged husband went on a shooting rampage at her place of work. The incident, which made national news, also shut down the city of Tualatin, schools and Meridian Park Hospital for a number of hours.
 

In an effort to bring something positive to this tragic situation, these friends decided to create this ride and partner with Clackamas Women's Services.
