I am Ken Bettencourt of Kens 10,000 Miles For Childhood Cancer

It cost me $25 a day to ride this bicycle roughly.  Please help me stay on one extra day for these kids that fight childhood cancer.

I am a 2x brain cancer survivor from Pawtucket RI.  This year I am cycling the U.S.  to raise awareness and money for childhood cancer research. I began the ride on Feb. 27th just outside of Tucson AZ. I will cycle over 10,000 miles this year. I am in Nashville, TN now and I have spent a lot of money already and if I don't get some help, I may not be able to finish the ride.   I have dealt with numerous bicycle problems, had to spend a lot of money the first month due to rain most every night.  I want to cycle the whole 10,000 miles but I should not have to go in debt while doing it.    I am down to my last straw and will not be able to continue if I don't get some work or some donations.  So, if you can help with either, please do.  I don't mind stoping to work, just look on my facebook link from up top and see where I am headed and I will do whatever you need done.

I am raising money for Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation on their site at: http://alexslemonade.org/mypage/1121793 but this fund is set up to help me across the country.  Unfortunatly it is not free to ride a bicycle daily.  I wish it was.   

I have logged over 200,000 miles on a bicycle riding these great states.  And I have enjoyed every mile.  This ride is a little more special than the last though.  It is for the kids.  They deserve the chance to grow old, as I have.  Surviving brain cancer, I know what it is like to be in their shoes.  I just want to do my part and raise money for the kids.  But, if I don't have money for myself, I will be unable to continue the ride. So, please help if you can.  Also, if you can join me along the way I would love to ride with you for a hour, a day, a week, or however long you like.  

Thanks for your donation to me which will help me continue to ride in honor of these kids.  Godspeed Ken.
