120 Miles in 1 Day for Leukemia Research

Hi everyone!

I will be riding my 36er unicycle 120 miles on Thursday, October 24th, as a fundraiser for City of Hope, and my special page is now up as well! (Link below)

I will be dedicating the ride to my brother Gary, who has the Leukemia. I will also be documenting my ride on video, and everyone who makes a donation will get a special thanks at the end of the video! If you prefer to donate anonymously, there's an option for that as well.

I hope you will help me reach my goal, and all proceeds will go to help find a cure for Leukemia.

Cheers,

Re: 120 Miles in 1 Day for Leukemia Research

Thanks everyone! Just three days until ride day and I am excited to announce that we now have donations totaling $811 towards the $1,000 goal! Please donate if you can as all proceeds will benefit City of Hope leukemia research.

I wish we could get a dollar for each of the 65,000-plus pedal revolutions I will be doing on my 36er unicycle for this Thursday's solo 120 mile charity ride, but I'll be happy just to reach the goal we set! Also feel free to share this link. Thanks again!

I am excited to announce that my goal of $1,000 in donations for City of Hope has been surpassed! With two days yet to go, I am hoping we get even more for this very worthy cause!

Big thanks to all who donated so far, and helped to reach our goal!

Wow that is definitely going to be a good cardio-vascular exercise for you, not to mention your leg muscles. I've seen another of your videos when you were on your unicycle down that rocky slope, and I admire you very much, so good luck to you.
