Story

https://www.mtrak.co.uk/show/tallrider

I will be heading out to Vancouver on 20th August, building my bike on 21st and shipping my bike box to the finish line.

Then the challenge begins on 22nd! I will pedal on average roughly 125 miles a day for the next two weeks, riding the entire length North to South of the west coast of the USA. I will cumulatively climb over three Mount Everest's over the duration and probably eat a mount Everest of food as well...

It is entirely self funded and solo with no outside assistance for my daily riding, I will be carrying everything I need with me on the bike. It will be an adventure, a test of bike, body and mind. 

Cycling for me is not just about keeping fit and seeing nice views, it's also a mental break from whatever else is going on in life, it's time to reflect and process... In my opinion everyone should ride a bike. I hope my ride can help raise awareness for a charity striving to help people who are suffering in ways I hope I never do.
