In Memory of Scott Bleifer

On the morning of Saturday, September 10, 2005, Scott Bleifer and Stanislav Ionov were cycling westbound on the Pacific Coast Highway.

The placement of K-Rails on the white line separating the roadway from the shoulder for a construction project forced the two cyclists off the shoulder and into the roadway where they were struck and killed by a catering truck 3/4 mile west of Malibu Canyon Road.

More than 400 local riders gathered for a 40 mile ride organized
by La Grange to honor the memories of these two fallen riders.

The Union Bank of California, where Scott worked as a Vice President, donated $25,000 to La Grange to establish an educational scholarship program in honor of Scott Bleifer.

La Grange is attempting to increase this amount to at $50,000 so that annual scholarship awards can me made indefinitely. We will give out the interest we hope to earn. La Grange has raised an additional $3,500 from proceeds from the Cedars-Sinai Grand Prix raffle as well as from donations from generous club members and others.

Karen Bleifer (Scott's sister) has expressed her wish that contributions be made to the Scott Bleifer Scholarship fund.
