Help us Make the Legacy Happen!

We’re only five months old as an idea! We launched online in August of ‘24.

Thank you to all who are reaching out and stepping up with early contributions to help us accomplish this first-of-its-kind legacy project for Texas.

As of 11/20/24, we have over 80 people who’ve reached out and taken our online volunteer survey! We have over 700 people on our email newsletter list!

Our goal is to raise $40,000 by the end of December 2024 to cover our basic expenses. See below for more details.

Can you help us raise the final $3,400 for this?

The faster we reach this early goal, the faster we can roll out the next very exciting planning and fundraising phase (hint: we’ll be getting into infrastructure to support the route - and Charlie was to raise $5 million over 5 years to make it happen).

This early financial support helps us with the following organizing efforts:

> Expenses Charlie continues to ground-proof each section of the trail and choose the most engaging, adventurous route in November and December ‘24. (11/20/24 the rough cut of this is DONE! Woot!)

> Essential marketing and organizing tools like this website, our email newsletter, and improving our other social media platforms to spread the word about this project.

> Updating our technical equipment to tell more engaging video, audio, and other types of stories as the project roles out - and - once the trail launches.

> Successfully engaging and organizing all of the talented volunteers who are signing on. The response has been amazing!

I feel strongly that bikes are good for people, good for the planet, good for city design, and generally make everything and everyone healthier and happier.
