June 6th - "Rails to Trails Tour”


    Cat & I rode in a benefit Pedal 4 Possible at Craig Hospital 18.5 miles. The elevation is 6000 feet and there was a lot of ascension feet. Plus Cat's in recovery, so we took it easy. Once we were finished, we had live music, and a huge barbecue!

Cat and I were the guest speakers for the afternoon, It seemed that everyone there already knew the meaning of Hope. There were many different adaptive cycles and an extremely supportive community. We were blown away. We had a great response, a lot of support and we're invite back by Craig hospital to establish deeper relationships with our organizations. www.hopefortrauna.org
