I completed the first phase of the Cycling W3R Expedition and spent three days in Rhode Island mapping out a viable Bike Route for the W3R. Due to some business issues I had to come back to KC. Since I am doing the this for free, I had to make sure I had income coming in from my business- I work for my self I will resume the expedition in the Fall when I am comfortable financially.
This is a grassroots project, I am volunteering my own money and time to; map out a safe Bike Route for the National Park Service, increase awareness of the sacrifices made by the people of the American Revolution so we can have the freedom and Liberty we enjoy in American, and to promote the benefits of cycling for travel and transportation and specifically how it encourages good health for: people, the environment, and communities.
All donations fund the expedition expenses only: Travel, occasional lodging, food, insurance, emergency, home expenses while on expedition, bikes repair, etc. If there is any extra money it will be used toward the next phase of the Expedition. The goal is to complete the missions.
I will list your name on the website, mentioning you while on the expedition, and acknowledging you on the follow up guide book. If your a business there are advertising opportunities.
