I'll be using a virtual journey from Jefferson City, MO to Emmetsburg, IA (my hometown) to visualize how many miles I've ridden on the Katy Trail in Missouri. Stay tuned to the various pages to keep up with my journey.

(Tell all the Northwest Iowa people that there's no way that I'm really riding to Iowa in April. Snow. Cold. Wind. That's why!)

Trying a new thing:

I'll be posting videos of my rides on "Linda's American Cancer Society Fundraisers" YouTube page. https://ytube.io/3bhm

Linda's American Cancer Society Fundraisers

When I was a child, my mother died of a bone cancer called multiple myeloma. She participated in early chemotherapy trials to develop more efficacious anti-cancer drugs with fewer side effects. Her selflessness inspired me to become a cancer researcher. Now, I volunteer for the American Cancer Society. I serve on my state board, and I fund raise by riding my bike on the Katy Trail in Missouri. You can watch snippets and outtakes of my fundraising rides on this channel. To donate to my rides, visit my American Cancer Society fundraising page: https://bityl.co/HYbA

Hey, Mastodonites,

I've been silent for awhile.

I've been planning #americancancersociety fundraisers.

#RealMenWearPink is coming up in October.

AND!!

Starting in April (or in March, if the weather cooperates), I'm going to ride 400 miles on the Katy Trail to raise money to support the American Cancer Society of Missouri's mission.
