Abbotsford couple plan to cycle 5 continents in 5 years to raise $2.5M for 5 charities
An Abbotsford couple plans to complete five long bike journeys over the next five years while raising $2.5 million for five charities.
The route has 45,000 metres in elevation gains – equal to summiting Mt. Everest from sea level five times. They have taken a wilderness survival first aid course and have created an emergency plan should they become injured or sick along the way. Kristen, a physical education teacher, travelled across Canada to start anew, eventually settling in B.C. in 1994, following her mom’s death from breast cancer.
