Ride Don't Hide

Michael with our very own Nancy.

Urbane Cyclist was proud to host Michael Schratter's Toronto press conference for his round-the-world-trip raising funds for the Canadian Mental Health Association. Michael is cycling to increase awareness and shatter the stigma surrounding bipolar disorder and other mental health issues. His solo voyage began August 1st 2010 and since then he has ridden 32 000 km through thirty countries on six continents. He is scheduled to reach Vancouver on November 12th of this year after completing the last 8 000 km of his trip. For more information or to make donations, visit ridedonthide.com.
