Join me to support kids with cancer

I’m riding to raise funds and awareness for local kids with cancer and their families. Every dollar pledged will go toward the mission of Candlelighters For Children With Cancer, a non-profit organization that provides life-changing programs and services for families facing cancer across Oregon and SW Washington. You can support me by pledging per mile, and follow my progress on the Ride for a Child 2025 Leaderboard.

I think I’m ready for Cycle Oregon! I rode a metric century on Saturday and another 58 miles during the week and on Sunday. There’s a beautiful trail here in Oregon called the Banks Vernonia trail. It’s a 40 mile rt rails to trails. Not a lot of climbing but you could log some miles! Thanks for all your support. 12 days to go!

This weekend I climbed some steep stuff outside of Lake Oswego. I’ve ridden to Lake O many times but have never visited the farms south of the downtown area. After 4,200’ of climbing I was pooped!

I rode the Lavender Ride in Sequim, WA this weekend. It was an organized ride with stops at lavender farms. Lots of fun and good training!
