My daughter and I participated in the bike ride this past October. I was so impressed by how outgoing and kind so many of the folks involved with the ride were. I didn’t know Richard, but from what I have heard, he must have been quite an impressive guy. You all seem to be doing a great job keeping his legacy going and for that reason, I’m happy to make the enclosed contribution. Ride On!

Just sending some positive Monday vibes. W had his first day at camp today. I picked him up and he was in such a great mood and absolutely LOVED it! Normally a day after school he has nothing to say about the day but he has not stopped talking about today. He is so sad it’s only for a week and not the whole summer. He met some friends already and really likes his camp coaches. He’s looking forward to future adventures on the trails and he grows into his new hobby. Thank you again so much for making this opportunity for him possible. We are both so thankful.

"This is amazing. So wonderful. I remember Richard getting our foster daughter her first mountain bike to determine if she would like the sport. This feels very much like you're keeping his spirit alive.”

“Hello, I dropped the bikes off on Friday to the astonishment and wonder of the 2 little girls. After making them promise to always wear helmets and shoes while riding, they were off…and on…and off. Their grandmother will take them to a surface flatter than their driveway for further adventures. Again many thanks to the Richard Tom Foundation for the bikes.”
