Only 60 Miles Left! Help Us Reach the Finish Line!

Team PHenomenal Hope is going through the most difficult part of their endurance training for their cycling race across the United States in honor of the PH community. Please help us fill up the last 60 miles on the unity map!

Tell all your friends and family about Team PHenomenal Hope and ask them to support a mile on the map. Every $15 makes you the sponsor of one mile. We want to make it all the way across the country in solidarity with the team before the race begins June 14. Help us reach 3,000 miles before they start on their 9 day, 3,000 mile trek.

Miles can be sponsored here

Training Ride in the Mountains

a.k.a. From Sheetz to Shining Sheetz

"Mountains. We all climb mountains. Most of us figuratively in our daily lives, and on the bike we get to relish the opportunity to climb them quite literally. There is nothing like seeing a peak ahead of you (or not seeing it) and going up up up."

May is National Bike Month

National Bike Month is a chance to showcase the many benefits of bicycling and to encourage more people to give biking a try.

Help save the environment, encourage healthy habits, save money or follow in the footsteps of the members of Team PHenomenal Hope. If your health allows, choose bicycling rather than driving and encourage your friends to do the same.
