Story

My plan is to cycle roughly  3000 miles around America  to raise funds for combat stress,  a charity that helps veterans who suffer PTSD.

I have been diagnosed with PTSD by combat stress and I have had many hours of therapy with them to help me come to terms with my experiences. 
Thanks to their treatment and the support of my family I am still here today. 
I am a better,  happier person and I would like to do something that could potentially help other veterans who are in the same situation I was"

My plan is to cycle roughly 3000 miles around America in the summer this year.  starting in Orlando Florida I will cycle west through the "deep south"  Mississippi,  Alabama,  Louisiana. 
When I reach Texas I will head north through Colorado towards Montana and then east to north Dakota. 
My aim is to hopefully raise some funds to go towards the treatment of other veterans at combat stress and hopefully through the power of social media spread awareness of PTSD.
