Cycle Across Canada and other cycle rides is to raise funds for lung research, and we do this through the British Columbia Lung Association to which all donations go directly. All costs of the trips are paid by ourselves. This year our rides are in the planning stage (watch this space!), but we will participate in the BC Lung 26th Trek for Life and Breath 2010.

Donations very welcome!

Please click for the official Lung Association donation site and: Donate in support of Dave or Maxine

Cape Town

”Uncle” Dave with Krystal and Jordan – and Table Mountain backdrop.

Dave is in Cape Town to participate in The Cape Argus cycle race which is held on the Cape Penninsula on March 14th. This is a 109 km race starting and finishing in Cape Town. There are 35,000 entries, including Lance Armstrong – and he need not worry about being beaten by Dave, because they are in different groups! Dave is the 65-69 years old group, and Lance (plus most of the other riders!) are in somewhat younger categories!

Now scroll down and "click" on our flag counter - we have people in 34 countries following us!

Every two years the American Lung Association holds its Big Ride Across America, and this year the ride will be taking place commencing in June. Dave hopes to take part! But, and it is a big “but” each rider must raise a minimum of $8,000 in order to participate!

Here is my official web donation page:

Donate in Support of Dave

But at this time, I am just looking for pledges, and once they reach the minimum, I will then get the pledges converted to donations. If you wish to make a pledge, please email me with the details!
