I'm participating in Pedaling for Parkinson’s to raise money for Parkinson Canada which will empower the Parkinson’s community through tailored support, innovative research and raising the voice of all those impacted by Parkinson’s.

I am riding the Confederation Trail in sections this week from the start in Tignish to the completion in Elmira (273 kms). I aim to finish this Sunday August 18, the date that many rides for Parkinsons is taking place across Canada.

 
More than 100,000 Canadians live with Parkinson's, a number expected to increase substantially in the coming years, with 30 Canadians diagnosed each day.
 
Parkinson's is a disease that affects not only individuals but also families, friends and care partners who come together to manage the realities of Parkinson's.
 
Parkinson's is the fastest growing neurological disorder in the world. 
 
Your donation ensures that a full, vibrant life is still possible for over 100,000 Canadians living with Parkinson’s.
