Iowa Collision Repair Shop Estimator and Son Bicycle 500 Miles to Raise Money for Families Affected by Cancer

August 4, 2016 By CollisionWeek Editor

Deren Batterson and his 12-year-old son, Jake, recently bicycled 500 miles in this year’s RAGBRAI, the Des Moines Register’s Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa, to raise money for the Livestrong Foundation that supports families stricken by cancer.  The week-long event was held July 23-29.
