Two Santa Monica High School Students Ride in AidsRide 2002
Santa Monica, California (June 17, 2002)

Mark Hunter - a junior at Santa Monica High School (SaMoHi)(Samohi Online Newspaper), resident of Santa Monica, and newly elected vice president of his high school student body - learned to ride a bike a year and half ago. Just last week he completed the 575-mile-week-long AidsRide California. He and another junior at Samohi were the only high school students from Samohi and among only 5 high school students to ride in the event. Mark believes that the reason more kids aren't riding bikes is because of society's notion that cars are best. As the vice president(Samohi), he would like to work on changing that. One idea he has is to give special credit to those students that bicycle to school. For the full story about him and Max Dean Goldstein(Santa Monica Resident, junior Samohi) riding for AIDS, see: Full Article
