He started riding in local group rides and centuries, developing strength and speed that allowed him to set a personal record in the 1997 Tour de Moore. Soon thereafter a routine physical exam detected red blood cells and protein in his urine. A kidney biopsy at UNC confirmed Cole had a condition known as <a href=\"http:\/\/unckidneycenter.org\/kidneyhealthlibrary\/glomerular-disease\/iga-nephropathy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">IgA nephropathy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>From there, he experienced a slow physical decline. It was early 1998 when his primary care physician referred him to <a class=\"internal-link\" title=\"\" href=\"\/medicine\/about\/leadership\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dr. Ronald Falk <\/a>who was the chief of nephrology at the time.\u00a0But in the summer of 2000 it became clear Cole needed a transplant. His sister agreed to be his kidney donor on March 7, 2001, just in time to prevent him from going on dialysis. And by May, he was back on his bike doing eight-mile rides. He also set a personal record.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4436\" class=\"thumbnail wp-caption alignright\" style=\"width: 359px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/945\/2018\/12\/pedaling-for-a-purpose-and-the-simple-joy-image3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-4436\" src=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/945\/2018\/12\/pedaling-for-a-purpose-and-the-simple-joy-image3-300x166.png\" alt=\"Cyclists pedaled for a purpose at the Raven Rock Ramble on May 7, 2017.\" width=\"349\" height=\"193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/945\/2018\/12\/pedaling-for-a-purpose-and-the-simple-joy-image3-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/945\/2018\/12\/pedaling-for-a-purpose-and-the-simple-joy-image3-301x167.png 301w, https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/945\/2018\/12\/pedaling-for-a-purpose-and-the-simple-joy-image3.png 583w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 349px) 100vw, 349px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"caption wp-caption-text\">Cyclists pedaled for a purpose at the Raven Rock Ramble on May 7, 2017.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI never expected I&#8217;d recover my speed and conditioning so quickly,\u201d said Cole. \u201cI was riding metric centuries by July and full centuries by September without the first quiver of leg cramps. I began to remember why I enjoyed cycling so much. I would ride for the simple joy of feeling my body move and the bike respond.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One year after the transplant, Cole decided to use his passion to help kidney patients with emergency needs. The rest of his story is now history. Since 2002, the Raven Rock Ramble has raised more than $250,000 for the <a class=\"external-link\" title=\"national_kidney_foundation\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kidney.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">National Kidney Foundation of NC<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.unckidneycenter.org\">UNC Kidney Center<\/a><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>On May 7, 2017, 620 cyclists came together to ride the 100-mile route west of the Cape Fear River and around <a class=\"external-link\" title=\"raven_rock_state_park\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncparks.gov\/raven-rock-state-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Raven Rock State Park<\/a>, passing through Wake, Harnett, Lee and Chatham Counties. The event raised over $30,000. Proceeds will go to the UNC Kidney Center\u2019s Dialysis Patient Assistance Fund.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been Dr. Falk\u2019s patient ever since 1998, and I\u2019ve always appreciated his care and compassion on my personal journey,\u201d said Cole. \u201cIt\u2019s encouraging to me personally to see the swelling support behind this ride and know how it helps others. Every participant, volunteer, and donor contributes to the UNC Kidney Center\u2019s capacity to help dialysis patients with essential emergent needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Next year\u2019s Raven Rock Ramble will take place on Sunday, May 6, 2018.
