My 81st Birthday Cross-Country Bike Ride for 2026
With dogs in tow 2016 I made a ride from Twin Falls, Idaho to the place of my childhood Morris, New York in celebration of my 71st birthday, serving as a fund raiser for Mary Alice Park Twin Falls, Idaho. Chobani (The premier US yogurt company) also having its roots in New York and Idaho joined me in this ad venture.
As I approach my 81st birthday planning is underway to once again make this cross-country ride as a fundraiser for Mary Alice Park celebrating the parks 20th birthday, my 81st and our country’s 250st birthday.
I hope to have my wife Bonnie, Diva my dog and Chobani join me in this adventure
The plan is to leave mid June 2026 and arive in Iowa by 18 July to take part inthe 53rd Ragbrai ride accross the state west to east.

In a world run by monarchs, the United States announced an unprecedented democratic experiment whose success was far from guaranteed.
“A revolutionary idea, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”
It isn’t about right or left but it’s about us “We the People” under the declaration of independence that makes us stand boldly let us be awakened in this year of celebration and remembrance of our responsibility “We the People”.
“Decent conduct does not mean what serves any person at any moment, but what serves society. You can’t have real safety or happiness in a society unless everyone play fair and learn to be kind to one another.” C.S. Lewis
