Trip Across Canada
I am planing to do a Uni trip across Canada (6,344km) to raise money for a charity called save the children. Kris Holm has agreed to do a section of Canada with me and i was wondering if any other people wish to help out.

Matthew, I'm sure that you could get a lot of Canadians interested in this ride. However, we need to know more about what to plan to do. When do you start? What is your time frame? What route are you taking? I also have a charity event I want to plan, so we should talk about that too. Feel free to give me an email, my address is below. -- Eroick --Eric Evenchick Email/MSN: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eroick's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/10884 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/72095 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I used to work with STC. They are a truly amazing charity and I applaud what you are doing! If I wasn't so far away I'd join you for a bit, but alas, I can only give you my moral support.

Trip Across Canada
Doing a charity ride is a great way to meet people, see some cool stuff and push yourself beyond what you though physically and mentally possible. I rode 2000km here in Australia (canberra-melbourne-adelaide) solo over 28 days to raise money for a kids charity in Afghanistan in my last university holidays. Organising a sucessful ride though takes a lot of time and patience. How do you intend to fund your trip? if you are expecting donations to cover it all you run the risk of individuals thinking they are funding your holiday, and not the cause. My ride was self funded, but some sponsorship from UDC australia and a camping store here in canberra helped me get kitted out at cost price. That way people were assured that any money they did donate does straight to the charity, not to my hip pocket and eccentric adventure. There is a lot of work in putting on something like this before you even get on the unicycle to start riding. For me it was acutally a relief to start riding after so much time invested in chasing down leads that most of the time left me high and dry. Persistence is the key to the planning as much as it is in the riding. Best of luck- if you have any questions pm me mark -- napalm you wont do it...your SCARED! "We are all racing towards death.

I too am eager to hear more specifics. I would like to do a small run in the NC area to help some of the Masonic charities. -- rem48 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rem48's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/15538 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/72095 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
