See The Country As We Saw It!

Posted by Kurtis on 29th September 2007

Do you want to see the 2007 Team’s route in more detail? Click here to visit our flickr.com map and examine the route taken by Coast to Coast for Hope’s riders during our 2007 cross-country bicycle trip.

We will be updating the entire trip with more photos and comments. For starters, we have added some photos from the first leg of the trip, ending after crossing the Mississippi River at Chester, Illinois.

Use the zoom tool to focus in on individual locations, zoom out to see the grand scale of the trip and use the Satellite or Hybrid mode to see the countryside from above. Each mark on the map pinpoints where the respective photograph was taken, giving you a better understanding of our route and the amazing trip that we completed just months ago.

Make sure to check back regularly to see updates to the Coast to Coast for Hope interactive map.

Pushing Forward

Posted by Kurtis on 21st September 2007

Welcome back folks!

We would like to extend our gratitude to all those who supported each individual on the 2007 team and to those who aided our cause. Without you, none of this would be possible. We will continue to get some behind-the-scene work wrapped up as we inch closer to acquiring a matching grant for the funds raised during the 2007 Trip, so stay tuned…

 
Bullet holes and turning highways

In the mean time, keep checking back to see our progress. This is a critical step in what Coast to Coast for Hope does as a charitable non-profit organization. It may not be as glamorous as bicycling through 11 states in 2 months, but it’s a necessary part of the equation.

We would also like to give a special thanks to Kris Surette, for her press release and media relations work, and Kevin Leary for his web and technical work. Your contributions and advice are truly appreciated. Thank you.

- Kurt
