JOIN THE JOURNEY AROUND THE WORLD
The original goal was to see what would happen first: help raise $1 million for non-profits (or) complete 25,000 miles of cycling (the distance around the Earth).
That goal was accomplished in June of 2025! As I finished the 25,000 miles we had raised $1,149.946. Fundraising won by 5 months.
The new goal is to continue raising funds and having fun on the bike. I'll take the $1,149,946 figure from the first challenge and see if we can continue to add to it until it amasses $5 million of funds raised for non-profits. As we shoot for that goal, I will ride fifty 50 mile rides in all 50 states and perform at 50 fundraising events. Which goal will be accomplished first? We will see!
You can participate in one of three ways.
1) Host a fundraising event and have me perform my clean comedy show (or even emcee the event).
2) Support my rides for various charities by pledging an amount during one of their cycling challenges.
3) Make a donation to any of the groups that have hired me in the past on the FUNDS RAISED SO FAR page.
Let me know how much was donated and I will add that and your name to the tally!
I look forward to hearing if you would like to be part of this amazing journey! Contact me anytime!

I am thrilled to announce my second "Bike4Bucks" fundraising goal.
My new mission is to see what happens first:
1) complete a 50 mile bike ride in all 50 states (or)
2) help raise $5 million for non-profits using my comedy show at 50 fundraising events.
I started riding a bike in 2020. The pandemic essentially canceled my schedule for the year and I had time on my hands. While biking, I felt there could be greater motivation if I included a reason for riding. I wasn’t sure at the time what that was. Then, in 2021 I found out I had cancer (prostate). I had the prostate removed in 2022. Then learned the cells had spread and received 38 radiation treatments in the Summer of 2024. Now we wait to see if that was successful.
