Arvid’s Diet
Someone was curious about what Arvid eats on the road besides MacDonalds and Tim Hortons. Each ride is different but the van is always stocked with the following. Red Bull- or hairy cow as Arvid calls it Mint Areo bars Pickles no garlic KFC Apples and oranges and other fruit Coke or Pepsi A bun with cheese and mayo Pizza after he’s off the bike at night Omelets made in the RV with 3 eggs, cheese, a smoky, a tomato, green pepper and salt and pepper to taste finally GoChi juice and Sustain (a supplement) and water Sometimes other things get added and somethings get left out
This is the sign we found at the side of the road. Art and Anne left it for Arvid. We taped it to the back of the RV 
We’re not sure what they make here, but it looks important. We stopped in Espanola for a BigMac for Arvid and some food for the crew and saw it on the way into town. I wonder if our world will ever be “green” while we are dependent on places like this. -Stephen
It’s always interesting going on a road trip like this. Arvid’s body is definitely going through its issues with fluid retention, fatigue and pain. The crew is experiencing sympathy issues due to poor diet, irregular schedules and less sleep. Josh is trying prune juice as a solution. We’re not sure what Vic is trying, but Henry B and Stephen are trying salads and fresh fruit from St. Katherine’s courtesy of Arvid’s family. It’s an amazing treat for Arvid and the crew. Thanks again!
Arvid’s brother Art and Anne from St. Katherine’s ON came up to meet us on the road. It was a great family moment and a huge encouragement. Thank you!
We in the support crew and Arvid want to thank all the truckers who give us space on the road and an unusual number of friendly honks today.
Yesterday we (the evening crew) had a nice clean van for Arvid to take naps in. This is what the morning crew left us with. Really? I thought our standards were higher than this -Stephen (Evening Crew)
Anyone know the nearest McDonalds on out route? Please email ASAP at

Thank you Lacey and Daughter for praying and sharing your prayer with us. She said I could share it with you
“Dear God, be Grandpa Arvid’s light when he’s travelling through the darkness. Be his guide. Carry him on this journey and make his way successful. Be his shield from the wind and rain. Make his burden lighter. Give him strength and joy and keep him safe and healthy. Thank you for his example of selflessness. Help us all to be more like You, Jesus.”

The crew reads your every message to Arvid whiles he’s pedaling. Every message seems to add speed to his weary legs. Please keep them coming
