Another Milestone!

We have reached the $20,000 mark, with an online 'Everyday Hero' total of $20,203.20, plus another $2000 donated offline in cheques. with only 5 more sleeps, things are ramping up, trial packings of the bikes; Dicko is lock and loaded while Donna is sacrificing "essentials" such as 5 weeks worth of clothes, shoes and of course, her knitting. Rick is adamant that she has to carry everything she needs on the bike, as to prevent the van becoming a 'wardrobe on wheels'.

here is how the bikes look fully packed;



Just a reminder, we are still taking donations so go to our Everyday Heroes website on this link

As our trip approaches, the excitement is building. Right now we are ironing out the last few details, such as the bluetooth headsets for the riders Donna and Bob, as well as the Van Man Rick sussing out the support crew details and plans, not to mention filling the van up with Donna's entire wardrorbe and vanity for the 35 day trip.
