Texas 4000 Bicyclist
On June

fighters. Their riders, all University of Texas students, are the
passionate young people at the heart of the organization. They train,
fundraise, educate, and bring hope to those with cancer.
The bicyclist began their journey in Cedar Park, Texas and will end in Anchorage Alaska on August 13.
Thank you to everyone who provided showers and helped prepare meals for our bicyclists. If you would like to learn more about Texas 4000 you can visit their website at www.Texas4000.org.
