Arvid and crew have passed through Revelstoke (2.5 hours ago), and are continuing on the journey. Arvid is doing well. It’s cloudy today with very little wind. The crew is doing well, despite being down a man (3 crew members for 2 vehicles). Contact with the crew is limited – the cell reception has not been great. The stats for the first day were taken from the GPS coordinates, rather than the crew. He completed roughly 537km in 24 hours and is 4h 24m ahead of the pacer. These numbers may be adjusted if we get word from the crew.

Arvid's Role
God has called me (Arvid) to be an ambassador for Mully Children's Family. I have chosen to use ultramarathon cycling as my platform from which to fulfill this calling. You can follow my ride, here, at www.grandpascan.com/ride. To read more about me and my story, click here.Donate
I am asking you to help. I am trying to raise funds for the ongoing and capital expenses for the child mothers program at MCF. This program provides the critical life skills the young mothers need. To learn more about donating, click here.
