Welcome to my 2017 Stihl Tour des Trees fundraising page and thanks for stopping by!

This is my first tour, and I couldn’t be more excited to be joining some veterans on my team as we join forces and ride for 800km to help raise the awareness of the importance of trees.

Think you don’t need trees? Aside from literally breathing life into our communities, what better place to have a romantic picnic in the park? Or climb to pick apples? Or enjoy a great book in the shade? Trees house our childhood memories, our adolescent love stories, and our adult shelters.  Trees are a part of our lives in the most fundamental and romantic of ways.

I could show my support for trees some other way, but pushing myself physically means I can support the encouragement of health and fitness too.  If I don’t inspire your love of trees, perhaps I can inspire you to get active.  If I can go 800km, then maybe I can inspire you to get active too.

Your generous donation goes directly to the Canadian Tree fund and is tax deductible, recognized in their annual donor recognition brochure (and it will keep you forever in my good books.)  

I believe a project like this that can help to educate youth about an important environmental cause and also encourage wellness. Would you like to come along to the Carolinas and ride the 800 kms with me or will you sponsor me and let me do all the leg work? 

“Life is like riding a bike. To keep your balance you must keep moving.”
