What Bike and Build is all about...

Bike and Build is a non-profit organization that raises money and awareness for the affordable housing crisis through the arrangement of cross-country biking trips. The organization primarily engages college students ages 18-25 on 8 different routes. Specifically, Bike and Build attempts to engage young adults in a life-long commitment to service and philanthropy by providing participants with a very intimate approach to the affordable housing crisis. For more information about the organization, check out their website at www.bikeandbuild.org.

Also, a very big thank you to everyone who donated to the cause. Each rider is required to raise a minimum of $4,000 and my current total is $6,770! Thank you again for your support!

Gods wrath!



The storm starts to form...



Just before we rode into the storm!

By far the most rewarding finish of a bike and build ride.

Sent from my iPhoneOn one of our 90 mile days we ran into a big reroute because of a
heavy gravel road. Well it turned into a 115 mile adventure with my
buddy sam. What makes it even better is that around mile 85 we ran
into the biggest storm I've seen in a few years. Sam and I braved
lightening, angry dogs, and heavy rain for the last 30 miles of our
ride. It was epic and my iPhone typing does not do the ride any
service. It's too hard to describe how awesome this day was so here
are some pictures to tide you over until I
can tell you in person.
