Ancient Forest Enthusiast Cycles Across BC to Jasper

/in /by

We’re extremely grateful and inspired by those who use their passions to help build the ancient forest movement! During September, big tree enthusiast and bicyclist, Michael, embarked on a cross-province cycling trip from BC to Jasper to raise awareness for the AFA and BC’s ancient forests. Michael also cycled in Mexico recently where he followed migrating animals like gray whales, vultures, and monarch butterflies. In his latest venture, he showed his support for BC’s old-growth forests and the many species and communities that depend on them.

Thank you, Michael! To learn more and to support the journey, check out his website: https://michaelrsuds.wixsite.com/mikebikesacrossbc
