What an amazing experience riding with Illini4000. We started in NYC and ended in SF, 77 day trip ~ 4,500 miles for cancer. So many memories that I will cherish for life with 12 incredible people to share them with. Thank you again to everyone who supported me throughout this journey. Thank you to @ed.imaging_ for the fire pics 🙏🏼. Thank you again @illini4000

Over halfway biking across the US. The wheels keep turning for the cause we’re fighting for. Westbound.

So grateful and honored to be on this incredible journey with @illini4000. So glad to have shared such a special opportunity with 12 young talented people. Thank you to all who have supported me while I embark on this trip. A month on this trip has taught me how valuable living in the present is while continuing to be mindful of how privileged I am to have the opportunity to experience such an amazing life experience. None of this would have been possible without the gracious support from my Mom.

The 2026 riders are repping their new tees, so obviously we had to take a few photos 😎 No bikes? No problem! They just lifted a whole human instead.

The team is currently putting in the work, fundraising and training for their cross-country adventure up ahead. With just around 3 months left until the summer, they’ll soon be on the road, documenting the American cancer experience and raising awareness for cancer research.
