On March 4, Patti Hall will begin one of the biggest adventures of her life as she dips her back bike tire in the Pacific Ocean in San Diego, California. For the next 60 days she will pedal across the southern route of the United States until her front tires reach the Atlantic Ocean in St. Augustine, Florida.  She is taking on this cross-country trek in an effort to raise money for spinal cord injury research.

Her son, Jason Hall, suffered a tragic accident and was left a quadriplegic. Consequently, raising money for a cure for spinal cord injuries is very close to her heart.  In her own words, "If I Ride……Maybe They Will Walk!” The Bryon Riesch Paralysis Foundation is extremely proud of her effort and we invite you to help her in her quest.  Please consider making a donation to the BRPF in her name.

If you are able to financially contribute, you can make a contribution online through Network for Good and dedicate your gift to "I Bike – They Walk”. Patti promises to send you a postcard from somewhere between San Diego and St. Augustine if you help her reach her goal!

Otherwise, please mail a check to the BRPF address below.

Please be sure to put “I Bike – They Walk” on the memo line of your check (made out to BRPF) so your contribution will be credited to her dream.

Please see Patti's letter she sent out to her friends and family and follow her on her blog.
