The Cause

Bike & Build is pedaling to end poverty housing.

Since Bike & Build’s 2002 inception, over the past 7 seasons the organization has donated $2,305,345, built for more than 63,500 hours, pedaled over 4MM miles, and engaged more than 1000 young adults in spreading the word about the affordable housing crisis in America.

Welcome!

Hi! Welcome to my blog friends and family!

First official blog, woohoo! Little warning before you get too excited, I am a) not a blogger enthusiast, b) technologically challenged, and c) not the most entertaining. But this is where I will track my Bike & Bike journey, from training to the ride itself. I'm so excited and expect lots of pictures that will allow you to peak into the window of my summer adventure.

Bike and Build 2010! So a little introduction to what I'm about to do next summer: I'm going to ride from Charleston, SC to Santa Cruz, CA (yes, all 4,104 miles, not alone in case you are wondering) shortly after walking across the stage and accepting my hard-earned Vanderbilt diploma. Bike & Build raises money for and awareness of affordable housing efforts through cross country cycling trips.

But before I begin my trip, I must raise at least $4,000 (hint: please help if you can). I mailed out my first wave of fundraising letters (fingers-crossed) and hopefully I will get a good first response.

Ready or not, here I come!
