The Wolfpack Rides for Autism

The Wolfpack Brandon (Tito) Deschenes, Matt and Mitch Gudeahn will be taking off to Florida on January 29 of 2010. We will be leaving St. Augastine, FL on our bikes on Feb. 1 for our journey to the coast of San Diego, CA. Our number one goal is to have as much fun as possible and help raise awareness for Autism along the way. We came up with the plan to ride across country about a year ago, to see the country and look for high adventure. After talking with our local bike shop owner and friend Don at DAS (Danielson Adventure Sports) we came up with idea, to not only ride across country, but to raise awareness and money for charity. We thought of Autism because Tito’s cousin had been diagnosed with Autism a few years before. Autism is relatively unknown, none of us had ever heard of it before so we figured it would be awesome to help raise awareness and some money for a disease that affects more and more children every year. And the cause of autism still has not been pinpointed.

The Route we Choose

We will be taking the southern teir route. It starts in St. Augustine Fl. crosses through Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, the longest point of the lonestar state of Texas and the mountains of New Mexico and Arizona and finally arrive in beautiful west coast of San Diego Ca, a whopping 3092 miles start to finish. We have purchased cycling maps from Adventurecycling.com that plot out our route and fasinating attractions along the way.
