    Hey everyone!

    Happy Trails!

    Hope everyone has been having a good time. This weekend I made a nice push towards my distance goal of 600km by the end of the month! I'm now almost 1/3 of the way and looking good to finish this by the end of the month. I'm also more than 2/5 of the way to the donation goal so if you or anyone you know we're thinking of donating to a good cause hit me up in my challenge to raise money for Children's Cancer.

    So on the weekend I got two solid runs in and managed to get a bit more than 90kms in!

    On Saturday I met up with my riding buddy and we went to Rotary Sunshine camp! That place has some nice riding trails good for side by side riding and that section of the trail isn't used as often too so it was quite the excursion. Then for a run up a hill off Mount Scio ( I forgot the name haha), a quick exhilarating spin down and then off to home.

    Sunday was a lazy day for me but I did manage to take the T'railway downtown then road back towards CBS and then home. Had some really good night riding in the fog and even got to see some nighttime kayakers decked out in LEDs. Pretty neat

    Still uploading a couple videos so stay tuned.

    So that's my update for today! I hope everyone stays safe and until we next meet, cheers!

    Happy trails everyone!

    For all those who had the day off I hope you had a good Regatta day. For those who didn't or have no idea what the heck that is, well I still hope you had a great day.

    The ride today started out great! Twas a beautiful sunny day and I got a good few km's in. Not 20 minutes after I met up with my riding buddy the heavens opened up and it started to pour.

    So we had to cut our ride short. That ended in an interesting ride home over the highway from Thorburn road.

    Got home looking like a drenched rat but got some good footage which I'm editing now in my amateur attempts at video editing. No lie, after a soaking a housecoat and cup of cocoa is one of life's simple great pleasure. Also pleased that I got 31km in today.

    Bit more rain this week but I'll still be giving er.

    Cheers folks and don't forget, we're all in this together!

    Just a short little update today as I wasn't able to get out yesterday and just took the whip to work and back.

    First off thank you ever so much Michael Greene for your generosity towards a worthy cause. Mike donated 104 dollars in my ride to raise money for children's cancer!

    Thanks again to all who've donated so far. I'm 2/5 of the way now to my fundraising goal and words cannot describe the appreciation I have for everyone who has donated or shared the info on this journey!

    The camera I purchased takes surprisingly nice video and I'm in the process of uploading what I took on my ride Saturday.

    Also, I got a bit of a scare after taking a tumble yesterday so I'll be going slow for a couple days. It reminded me that I am not invincible and things that can sour very quickly when being careless. Thankfully I escaped with only a few bruises. Helmets save lives people never forget!

    Well that's all for today. Happy trails and don't forget, we're all in this together.

    What a great day to get out and about and start a challenge!

    Cheers to everyone. I hope you all had a better day than your worst!

    So, for the start of my journey I decided to hit up Signal Hill! So, that's a run from Mount Pearl to there. So many people came out today to see fog. It was neat!

    Met up with a friend along the way and we tackled that task and did some other biking into the lesser known hills looking over the area near Manna's Bakery.

    Since I can only show one photo I'm looking into another way to show pictures of the run and I still have to review the trail cam (lol and find out if it actually worked) so stay tuned!

    Love and peace y'all and fuck cancer
