A RIDE FOR THREE REASONS

•October 11, 2012 • Leave a Comment
In September of 2012 Illinois resident Bob Lee embarked on
what he hopes will be a $1 million bike ride. This will be his third independent effort to raise money and awareness for three important causes, Cancer, ALS and Hospice care.

This is the third ride across the country for Lee. It will complete over 12,000 miles around the perimeter of the United States. Bob hopes to achieve the fundraising goal of $1 million. Like his previous treks, this will be a solo ride with the exception of occasionally being joined by local groups and family members.

To Bob, the RIDE is not about the destination but about the journey. Join him to see the places and meet the people he encounters along the way by following his daily blogs and photos.
