I am hosting an event from May to September of 2022 and fundraising in support of the Canadian Women’s Foundation. I will be cycling across Canada with my dog Yoshi to help raise money and awareness.

My Mother raised my 2 sister's and myself on her own while she put herself through nursing school. She also worked two jobs while having no support from my father.

 My father was not faithful to my mother and was physically abusive to me. My Mother's second husband was not a good man either and was very controlling and mentally abusive to her and unfortunately a rapist of many women. He is the reason I left home at 15.

 As a family that has suffered abuse in many forms we all pulled through and lead healthy and happy lives now. As a result many years later my mother got re-married to a great guy named Reggie and have been happily married for 20 years. 

One of my sisters also raised a son on her own and my wife raised 3 children on her own before I came into the picture. They did a great job and Marie and I now have 6 grand kids, go figure! Life is good !

When I begin my bike ride across Canada next year I will be 60 years old ! It has been my life long dream to cycle across this great country of ours and is now becoming a reality...Awesome ! I hope to bring ALL Canadian's together as I try to meet as many people as possible in different towns and communities that I ride through and that I also get to help 3 great Charities.

I hope you will follow us on our YouTube Channel Bill and Yoshi's Outdoor Adventures as well as on Facebook for daily up dates.     

The Canadian Women’s Foundation is Canada’s public Foundation for Women & Girls. They empower women and girls in Canada to move out of violence, out of poverty, and into confidence and leadership. Since 1991, they have invested in over 1,500 community programs across Canada.

You can also help stop the violence, end poverty, and empower girls by making a donation in support of my fundraiser.

Thank you for your support!
