- What's your connection to the Ride:Well Tour?
- Cross-Country Cyclist, Advocate
- About Me:
- By profession I am a student and trainer. Hopefully there's more to it than that ;)
Most importantly: I love God. I love people.
Imperfectly, I attempt living according to that standard. Love.
The Ride: I'm stoked and blessed to have the opportunity to join Blood:Water's 1000 Wells Project. This trip allows me to exercise my passions. Love, Compassion, Aid and Adventure! It is my passion to pursue a life that reflects the awesome love of God. I see this ride/adventure as a perfect opportunity to live out compassion by helping raise funds and awareness for bringing clean water and aid to people who need it. Last summer I had the opportunity to engage the African people and culture first hand in Uganda. They blessed me with their stories, smiles, joy and hope. Amazing... that word is the best way I can sum that experience. That had to be one of the best experiences of my life. This summer I hope to be a part of returning that blessing.
Thanks to each of you who are joining in this initiative!

i stated in my first blog that i wasn't much of a blogger and didn't know what this would look like. i've never been one to assume i would know what tomorrow entails, but surely things are looking different than i would have imagined them for this summer.

Riding Well
After second day…
Yesterday was a beast… but TONS of fun!
Day 1 was 68 miles – 30 of which were climbing in the mountains. Nothing like riding the flat terrain of Dallas. If there was any part of the trip I may have felt unprepared for, this was it. But… I must say (not to be proud) I kicked butt and flew over the mountains. Had to be a God thing… a Louisiana boy climbing mountains by bike… that’s laughable! I know I was surprised/in awe of both the beauty and… Continue

How to Blog???
Alright peeps...
I've never done this whole "blog" thing before and not sure what its gonna look like either. Guess my goal will be to get on when I get a chance (or when I feel like it) and fill my friends and foes in on what's going down. Basically, I'll be real and maybe someone will read about it.
That said...
Thanks to each you. You have all been more than supportive. Actually, it's near ridiculously moving how supportive many of you have been. Your encouragement and… Continue

We really enjoyed having the tour in Little Rock, AR this weekend. You guys are inspiring and doing such a great thing for mankind! Our prayers are with you all as you press on down the road. Know that your dad and family are in our prayers as well!I'm keeping your dad in my prayers too. Keep us posted on the surgery and your dad! I really enjoy praying for you guys and, although I only met you briefly in L.A.(seems forever ago now), I feel like I'm somehow part of the team through all this blogging and praying. Thanks for that.
I'm in love (with the coast, that is) and I'm pretty sure this time, the feeling is mutual.
How's the ride so far?
