As I reflect on the transformative power of cycling in my life over the past ten years, the resonance with the challenges our youth face today becomes even more profound. At the age of 10, my connection with cycling was abruptly severed when my beloved bike was stolen, leaving me with a sense of loss and vulnerability that lingered for two decades. This experience, though difficult, ignited a fire within me to reclaim the joy and freedom that cycling once represented.

Now, as I navigate my own cycling journey, I am compelled to use this personal transformation for a greater purpose. Through my fundraising campaign I am not only sharing the story of my return to cycling but also aiming to address the issues that at-risk youth grapple with today. My own struggles have given me a unique perspective on the healing power of cycling, and I believe in the potential it holds to inspire and empower others.

By supporting the King Ridge Foundation, we can together make a tangible impact on the lives of at-risk youth, offering them a path to resilience, well-being, and community. Your contribution is not just an investment in a cause; it is a testament to the potential for personal growth and positive change that cycling can bring. Let's pedal towards a brighter future, one where the challenges faced by our youth are met with empowerment, support, and the transformative force of two wheels. Thank you for being a part of my journey and this meaningful endeavor!
