Just completed my final goal and rode 503km. That’s almost the entire 550km drive from Vernon to Calgary. Crazy! So many donations too. Even got one on the ride today. So I had a celebratory ice cream cone!
Thank you everyone for your continued support and encouragement. I can’t believe how successful this campaign has been this year and I’m very thankful. My next goal will be to break through $3,000 and then $5000! For now I’m super excited to reach $2,500 and 250km. What a day!
It’s the end of the B.C. long weekend and I’m already 80km into this challenge. On Friday I received a donation from Josh and posted it to social media. It had a lot of attention and Saturday morning I had several hi’s from passing cars. On the way back from the beach I met a friendly fellow cyclist who later made a donation. Today I decided I’d make two loops of the lake and topped 30km on the ride. Not my longest ever (100km 12 years ago lol) but still very satisfying to take a big bite out of my challenge. Looking forward to what the week will bring. Remember to say hi if you see me.

Wow! Today was my first donation while out on a ride. Josh found me next to Kins beach and pulled me over. He gave me a donation and told me about his experience with kids cancer. Thank you for your donation Josh and I’m praying for your friend who was recently diagnosed.
It was hot and I drank almost two bottles of water but it was great! Rode around Coldstream past Kal beach. No smoke so far so that’s good.
It was an Okanagan heat wave that could have dampened our spirits but the people were friendly and the ride was well supported and we had a blast. Looking forward to more riding in the coming weeks as I attempt to smash last years nearly 500km or riding.
