<p>George and Renata Zumberge found themselves in a familiar setting, one they have visited countless times before.</p>
<p>On Saturday morning, the Bernville couple perched on their Harleys, their engines rumbling beneath them. It was a space filled with comfort and happiness for both of them.</p>
<p>Yet, Saturday felt a bit different. It wasn’t quite the same as all those previous rides.</p>
<p>This time, they were clad in nothing but their underwear.</p>
<p>It might seem like the stuff of nightmares, the kind that awakens you in panic during the night. However, the Zumberges embraced the moment with grins on their faces.</p>
<p>Their playful exhibitionism served a very noble purpose.</p>
<p>The couple joined numerous motorcycle enthusiasts at Classic Harley-Davidson for the 4th annual Undy 500. This event challenges participants to navigate an obstacle course on their chosen bikes while wearing only their underwear, all to promote awareness of colorectal cancer prevention.</p>
<p>The Zumberges expressed their joy in participating, even if it meant showcasing a little more than usual.</p>
<p>“It’s still more clothes than a swimsuit, so what’s the difference?” George remarked, donning a white undershirt and leopard-print boxers.</p>
<p>Having been loyal customers of the Bern Township dealership for over a decade, George mentioned that they had heard about the event for a while, but Saturday marked their first time riding in their underwear.</p>
<p>“This is for a great cause, and something we believe is important,” Renata stated, smiling as she stood beside her bike in a lacy undershirt and silky bloomers. “Besides, we love doing quirky things.”</p>

<p>Colorectal cancer stands as the second leading cause of cancer deaths among both men and women in the U.S., affecting approximately 150,000 individuals annually—one-third of whom may succumb to the disease. This is primarily due to the fact that 1 in 3 Americans, even with insurance, skip recommended screenings.</p>
<p>My Gut Instinct officials aim to alter that statistic. The nonprofit educated attendees at the event about the ease of colorectal cancer screening.</p>
<p>Dr. Aparna Mele, a physician at Digestive Disease Associates in West Reading, founded the nonprofit to encourage individuals to take charge of their digestive health and wellness.</p>
<p>“Our goal is to raise awareness regarding the significance of screening,” she stated.</p>
<p>Dr. Mele collaborated with Classic Harley-Davidson to reach a demographic, particularly men aged 45 to 65, who require education about colorectal cancer. She explained that the goal of the event is to utilize humor to address what can be a frightening subject.</p>
<p>“This community possesses a strong camaraderie, and having Harley’s support is invaluable; if Harley endorses colonoscopies as cool, it lends credibility to the screening process,” she added.</p>
<p>Every participant who completed a lap around the course received a complimentary pair of boxers featuring the Harley and My Gut Instinct logos, a free stool testing kit, and a coupon for a free motorcycle oil change at the dealership for those who commit to their first colonoscopy within the year.</p>
<p>“We’re embracing the theme of cleaning your pipes,” Mele chuckled.</p>
<p>Early detection significantly increases the success of treatment, and regular screenings play a vital role in this.</p>
