Raising Awareness
Severe visual impairments have never stopped us from chasing our dreams. Now we have our sights set on a new goal. We hope to raise awareness globally about the abilities of the sight-impaired and to inspire people everywhere to chase after their own dreams.
The RideIn December 2011, we'll fly down to Ushuaia, Argentina to start an 18-month journey across roughly 16,000 miles and 15 countries on a tandem bike, ultimately completing our adventure in Deadhorse, Alaska. |
