60-Year Old Man With ALS Bikes 400 Miles Across Death Valley to Raise Awareness
Lafita was diagnosed with ALS in 2016. Three years later, he started a nonprofit called DalecandELA in his native Spain, a name that roughly translates to “rock on” or “ride on,” to promote awareness of the neurodegenerative disease. The organization has raised and donated over $450,000 for research and to individuals living with the condition.
