Goal Raised After One Week

7/24/2013

Can't say enough about the outpouring of support that I have received.  On the financial side, I have already exceeded my goal of $10,000.00 in one week of serious fundraising.  In addition, everyone at Colliers is behind me and supportive of this undertaking and that is a huge relief.  That will allow me to enjoy the experience rather than worry about what's going on at the office.

My new fundraising goal is $15,000.00.  I also have this notion that I'd like to try and collect at least one donation "from the road" per day during my ride.  Every time I get a donation, I will take a picture of the donor and post it to my blog.  That could easily generate another $500 or more for the Arthritis Foundation and it would be a good way to meet people.

    On August 14, 2013, I'm flying to Vancouver, British Columbia and beginning a 29-day, 1,880-mile bike ride from Canada to Mexico.

    On this page you'll find random ramblings before, during, and after my trek down the Pacific Coast. Prior to BikeTheCoast13, I'll blog about my prep, training, and thoughts from the road.  
    While visiting my blog, I hope you'll offer comments, suggests, and words of encouragement.  I'm going to need all the help I can get!

    For those who don't know me or my inspiration, please take a moment to check out the Why Now? tab to meet my daughter Lindsey and find out how I got here.  

    If this site helps or inspires you in any way, I hope you'll consider making a small donation to the cause.


    If you'd like to contact me personally, you can email me at Jeff.fredericks@outlook.com
