My name is James and I have been an experienced bike rider for 13 years. I ride a Focus Cayo and my favorite/longest ride or race was when I rode to Nashville with The Together Initiative two years ago. Seven years ago, I was fighting Lymes Disease and high blood pressure and I started to run and ride. I enjoy riding bike a lot and look forward to the Orlando ride this year with The Together Initiative. I have been involved with The Factory Ministries over the years to help with the efforts to alleviate poverty within the community. Having worked in the Paradise community for 14 years, I have felt a need to volunteer and to continue to raise awareness of needs in the community and help to raise money for the future projects of The Together Initiative.
