About Us

Our names are Willy Konantz and Taylor Scholz.  We're two students from Vancouver currently attending University of Western Ontario as first year students.  We've grown up together since elementary school and have always shared similar passions. The moment the idea of riding across Canada crossed both our minds, there was no way we weren't going to let it go. We knew it would be a lot of hard work but without family and friends supporting us this somewhat radical idea would not have mapped out, thanks to everyone for making it possible. 

To be honest, we don't have a ton of experience road biking but we are just two determined kids looking to make a difference. For a disease that is so curable when caught early, too many men are losing their lives to it. We want to be that small cause that makes a big difference.
