I'm Riding For
Jackson Soyster
Jackson, age 9, has been living with a brain tumor over half of his young life. And to make his life still more challenging, his dad recently died of a heart attack.
My Story
This morning I took my last ride for the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! It was out of this world, as I rode from Pluto to the Sun and back again on a stretch of the Pere Marquette Rail Trail. And speaking of out of this world: you are. All of you who made generous donations to this cause deserve a giant THANK YOU. Every time my legs felt a little tired or sore, I thought of what Jack is going through. That, and your support, saw me to and past my goal of 300 miles and $5000. And I don't know how long this page will be active, but feel free to add a donation if you haven't done so already. Thanks again!!!
Peace!
John

P.S. I'm also considering all donations in support of my ride as gifts in memory of my son, Jason Soyster (1983-2023).
