Ride Like a Thriver
A cross-country bicycle journey created to share hope, raise awareness, and remind people affected by cancer to get up and live.
The 2022 journey
From the Pacific to the Atlantic, one day at a time.
The ride began in San Diego on March 28, 2022, after Chuck dipped the back tire of his bicycle in the Pacific Ocean. He followed the southern route through Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, and Florida before reaching St. Augustine.
The original plan called for roughly 50 miles a day for three days, followed by a rest day. Riders and supporters were invited to join portions of the route and help carry the foundation’s message into their own communities.
Seven states crossed
A 2022 mission of hope
The ride has concluded
The road ended. The mission keeps moving.
Ride Like a Thriver became part of the foundation’s story and a visible promise that cancer does not have to take away every reason to move, connect, and live with purpose.
