Brian Hahl, Stockertown cyclist who raised multiple sclerosis awareness for 20 years, died Saturday, July 11, 2009 By COLIN MCEVOY The Express-Times Brian Hahl, a 50-year-old teacher and cyclist from Stockertown, died Thursday afternoon after suffering a heart attack during a bicycle ride. Hahl, who had been a science teacher for 27 years at Hillsborough Middle School in Somerset County, N.J., was preparing to participate in his 20th consecutive bicycle run to raise funds and awareness for multiple sclerosis. Jim Durham, a teaching colleague and friend who planned to ride alongside Hahl, said Hahl's teammates will now be riding in his honor. "He completely inspired me," said Durham, 41, who has multiple sclerosis but rode 50 miles alongside Hahl last year. "He pushed me to ride when I said that I couldn't do it," said Durham, who plans to ride 150 miles this year. "He knew that I could do it, and I'm so grateful to him for that." Hahl was planning to lead the Lehigh Valley-based team MS Milestones in the National MS Society's annual PA Dutch 2009, a July 18-19 cycling event expected to raise $325,000 to battle the chronic disease. Linda Ruzanski, a former teaching colleague of Hahl who has multiple sclerosis, said Hahl looked forward to the event every year, and worked hard to raise money and awareness to fight the disease. "He was just a good man with a good heart, and his students absolutely loved him, just loved him," said Ruzanski, 58, of New Hope, who knew Hahl for 24 years. "He will be missed inmoreways than one." Hahl was also a member of the local Lehigh Wheelmen Association and rode for 14 years in the Pennsylvania Perimeter Ride Against Cancer in honor of his father, who died of cancer. When Hahl first started riding in the National MS Society's PA Dutch event, he did not know anyone with multiple sclerosis, nor had he even ridden a bicycle seriously before.... "This is the true joy of living. This being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one. This being thoroughly used up before being thrown on the scrap heap. This being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod, full of ailments and grievances, complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy." G. B.
