Pedaling for Educational Opportunities

CALIFORNIA TO MASSACHUSETTS BY BIKE

Home: Welcome

Hello There!

In the summer of 2021 I will be biking solo across the USA! If you see me come say hi. I would love to hear your route suggestions, history of the local area, and simply just to meet you as I pedal across the US.

I am also riding to support a local high school club that has been struggling during COVID and I would appreciate if you would check out the GoFundMe page on my website and learn more about them.

Please explore the website and have a great day!
