An 8 year ride for kids

Put an end to Bullying & Adolescent Suicide

In year 3 of this mission, I introduced a bicycle ride to my travels to raise
awareness about issues kids are having to deal with at far too young an age.
Bullying and Adolescent Suicide are two of these challenging burdens most kids
will unfairly have to overcome throughout the remainder of their lives. At rides
end we will have ridden enough miles to traveled the perimeter of the earth, twice.
My mission on this ride has but one focus: To save kids lives.

Wolf Hirschorn Syndrome

Far and away the biggest gift I receive because of what I do is being able to witness firsthand the incredible love a family has for each other. DeLaney has a rare disability called 4P- or Wolf-Hirschorn. The love this family has would fill your heart and bring tears of joy to your eyes. Sharing in this moment was such a beautiful gift to me. Thank you to the Horen family for driving from Toledo to meet with us.
