We’ve been waiting for spring for what feels like forever. One of the events I’m participating in for a spring kick-off is 30 Days of Biking and it starts today! Day 1 of 30 Days of Biking is April 1st, and there’s a hosted kick-off event in Minneapolis. We’ll gear up for a quick 4-5 mile ride along paved paths and “the river” at a slow pace. Entry is 5 bucks and we’ll start meeting at 5:00 PM at Graze Provisions + Libations, then ride at 6:30PM. Let’s get into shape for a nice spring and a warm summer. #30daysofbiking
Fat Bike – Winter Cycling
Later in the Fall I’ll be participating in my first charity ride. The Red Ribbon Ride is a fundraiser to help end HIV in Minnesota. The ride takes place over 2 days and is over 150 miles. The organizations we’re supporting are the Aliveness Project, One Heartland, and Rural AIDS Action Network.My fundraising goal is $1500 so any support is greatly appreciated. https://give.redribbonride.org/fundraiser/3808454
I'm Sean Kilby and I'm from North Carolina I grew up with a great passion for music, arts, books, swimming, biking, soccer, Magic the Gathering, travel, electronic arts, and theme parks (Not Sea Parks). 5 ish years ago I started the process of moving away from animal based foods, now I'm completely vegan for about 2-3 years. I've studied nutrition by reading books, websites, and articles such as Thrive and Bigger, Leaner, Stronger (not a vegan guide). I took the approach of a plant based vegan diet so I didn't have to sustain myself by using an animal product for sustenance. I also do a lot of thought exercises and self reflection, meditation, and mindfulness to navigate through the experiences of life. I place these thoughts on this blog to have a good conversation with myself and others. The biggest and most difficult conversation that is taking place is that the global temperatures are dramatically increasing, putting our global ecosystem in danger due to methane gas from animal agriculture. The hardest part was I had lost the vision to improve the future. My work is ever changing, but setting clear goals have brought me to where I am today. Taking up the e-quill to tell a story.
