A Fraser Valley man is ready to cycle from Kelowna to Vancouver for cancer research later this month.

Sean Dalin lives in Langley, but he decided to start his fundraising trek in Kelowna, where his father and other relatives live and where he spent a lot of time growing up.

91裸聊视频淚91裸聊视频檓 up there quite a bit, and it91裸聊视频檚 like a second home base to me,91裸聊视频� he said.

Dalin is cycling for the BC Cancer Foundation91裸聊视频檚 Tour de Cure, where he signed up to cycle 160 kilometres a day for two days.

91裸聊视频淚 didn91裸聊视频檛 want to just do a big loop from Point A to Point B. So I started thinking maybe instead of doing 160, I91裸聊视频檒l do 200 (kilometres) a day, and then I was trying to figure out how far 400 kilometres would be,91裸聊视频� he said.

91裸聊视频淚t turns out a route from Kelowna all the way to Kitsilano Beach (in Vancouver) was exactly 400.91裸聊视频�

Dalin said he wanted to participate in the cycling fundraiser after his lifelong friend was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2017. His friend underwent brain surgery and chemotherapy and is now stable. He will be coming along with Dalin as his support vehicle throughout the cycling journey.

91裸聊视频淗e91裸聊视频檚 my main inspiration for this. And one of my best friend91裸聊视频檚 moms, she recently was diagnosed with breast cancer. Another friend of mine, she91裸聊视频檚 a cancer survivor. There are a few people in my life that have been affected by it, and I want to do this for them,91裸聊视频� he said.

91裸聊视频淚 got into cycling a year ago and it has been such a big impact on my life that I wanted to be able to do something with it to help impact other people91裸聊视频檚 lives in a positive way.91裸聊视频�

The pair is scheduled to make the 400-kilometre trip on Aug. 28.

But with wildfires still active and out of control in the Interior, Dalin said he91裸聊视频檚 not too sure if he91裸聊视频檒l still be able to go through with his plan to start the ride off in Kelowna.

91裸聊视频淚91裸聊视频檒l just have to pivot where I start from if it turns out I really can91裸聊视频檛 start in Kelowna, but the hope is I91裸聊视频檒l still get to start there,91裸聊视频� he said.

91裸聊视频淭hings are changing every day and I91裸聊视频檓 hoping by the time my ride day comes, things will be good.91裸聊视频�
