The Journey Home
Seattle to Vancouver in a Day
June 21, 2010
Following the inaugural BC Cancer Foundation Ride to Conquer Cancer in 2009 a small group of friends decided to ride back to Vancouver from Seattle in one day. That first ride was dedicated to Sindi Hawkins and her on-going battle with leukaemia. Funds raised were directed to Sindi's Education Endowment at the BC Cancer Foundation.
For 2010, the Journey Home ride will fund the development an education and early detection program in the name of Michael Reinhold Meier who passed away in September 2009, six days shy of his 26th birthday. He faced a short, but very intense battle with cancer which nobody saw coming. We need to change that. The Journey Home and www.letsFcancer.com are working together to support an education program to bring about that change. Donate and have the opportunity to receive some very unique gifts from the pro cycling community. Read more here...
