A cyclist is making the trek to Vancouver, raising money for the BC Cancer Foundation.
Mark Camps’ journey began in Prince George on Sunday, April 21st, and has continued riding south, making his way through the Cariboo.
Camps says he doesn’t just have one person in mind when he’s riding.
“There’s been parents of good friends, there’s been personal relatives of mine, very good neighbours at home.” says Camps.
“It’s not specifically for one individual, but it’s kind of for everybody that’s had a bit of a struggle.”
While Camps had done some preparation, the consecutive longer days has put a bit of miles on the body, but goes alright once the ride starts.
From Prince George, he’s gone to Quesnel, then Williams Lake, made his way to Clinton yesterday, and will now be making his way to Lillooet, Pemberton, and finally Vancouver by Friday.
Donations can be done on Camp’s personal fundraising page on the BC Cancer Foundation’s website here.
