Hi, very new to an adventure of this scope...but looking to raise awareness of Parkinsons Disease. Im 50 and have had PD for 13 years.im planning to leave Comox the last week of June 2014 and riding to Calgary....still in planning stages of my exact route.ideally i would love to be in Vancouver for Canada Day July 1st . this is a list of guaranteed stops , i am currently planning my stops in the middle of these destinations. My plans to do this ride have received great publicity 5-6 newspapers and local television.
it would be greatly appreciated if people would allow me to camp out on their property etc...any kind of help is greatly appreciated. i plan to make a simple documentary that can be used to not only raise P.D. awareness but to inspire others living with P.D. as well as their caregivers.
please checkout the following sites for some background about my adventure :
