OK, I have set up a GoFundMe page for my TOH charity ride. I set it up as a charity page so the proceeds go directly to Mission22 (minus the GoFundMe service fees). I never have to touch the money - I believe they send it over on a periodic basis. How you help is up to you. Want to donate one time now? Sounds great. Want to wait and donate after I ride a bit? Even better. Plan to donate per site visited? That's my plan, too.
If you would like to also support Operation Tango Mike, hit me up. I plan to write a check at the end of my rally and can include anything you might want to provide, too.
Both organizations are charities registered with the IRS, so any donations you make can be written off on your taxes :)
Give or not give - please do what is right for your situation. How else can you help? Spread the word - anything you do to raise awareness is a good thing! Share my efforts if you are so inclined. I plan to keep this blog updated as the year progresses.
The rally starts April 1st and runs through the end of October. I have some big rides planned during this time. Multi-day rallies and long day rides. You might be amazed at the places I travel this year. I am definitely leaving my back yard!
That's it for now. Gotta go work to fund my addiction :). In the meantime here's some picture therapy to whet your appetite.

| Long rides? You betcha. Here's 1 day of riding to get to last year's rally in Colorado. |

| Why ride? Why not? |

| Sometimes beauty just walks up and smacks you upside the helmet. So you pull over and admire it. |

| Where will this year's adventures take me? Last year I visited 4 states at the same time, so who knows? |

Tim,
Good luck and safe travels on your journey. I've shared on my timeline and hope that you get more response than you ever anticipated. I'll be under water very shortly but will hand you a check for Operations Tango Mike when I pull into Bremerton.
V/R,
David
Thank you, David! I will look forward to catching up when you get back over here :)
