Riding to Recovery

Riding To Recovery is the path that I’ve chosen to bring myself back to health – physical, mental and spiritual. For me, cycling is the medicine, balm, and conduit that has helped me to recover from the sequential loss of several family members. It is also the driving force that has kept me soldiering forward as my wife "N" slipped into the depths of alcoholism.

Riding to Recovery is simple – my plan is to ride everyday for an entire calendar year, rain or shine, starting on June 19th, 2009, the day that "N" and I formally separated. Riding To Recovery is a way for me to work through the tough stuff life has been throwing my way and to share my experiences with others who are also in recovery.

So no matter whether you’ve experienced grief through loss, or if you are an alcoholic/addict – or the partner of one, like me – please get on your bike and COME RIDE WITH ME! And if you’d like to share your stories with me and others, please feel free to join Riding to Recovery. As for me, I live and ride in Marin County, CA and I welcome you to contact me and go for a ride. If you don't live nearby but you'd like to share your rides or experiences related to recovery, then please send me an Email , or simply add your comment to a posting. Thank you for coming along on what is surely going to be an epic ride.
