Jordan's ALC Voyage

From June 3-9, 2012, I will be riding from San Francisco to Los Angeles to raise money for the LA Gay & Lesbian Center and the San Francisco AIDS Foundation.

I ride for two reasons. I first learned of the ALC during my on-going fitness journey, and thought it would be a great challenge. Then I started raising money and realized that my fitness journey had brought me here for a reason. It is time for me to make a difference, and help raise money for an important cause.

I ride to make a change in this world for the better. I ride because I can. I ride for those who can't.

It's really happening!





In about 4 hours, I will be taking my bike (freshly saran wrapped!) to the Center, where it will be placed on a truck and shipped north.

In about 58 hours, I will board a flight to San Francisco.

In about 92 hours, I will get on my bike and start pedaling.

I am a mix of excited, afraid, overwhelmed, happy, and a whole list of emotions I can't even describe because I'm not sure I've ever experienced them before.  This journey has been simply amazing.  I have met amazing people.  I have been blown away by the generosity of friends, colleagues, family, acquaintances... I knew I was passionate about this.  I had no idea how many others would share in that passion!

I'm so excited... can't wait to board that flight!
