Ramping up
L to R: Tim Devlin, David Wildman, Kyle Alcorn
We’ve been busy these past couple weeks! As the community has stepped up and helped us raise $16,000 so far we are starting to get ourselves prepared for our end of the bargain! We are under the 4 week mark and we have all our supplies, been training like crazy, and have a few more local events to attend – stop by the Fat and Skinny Tire Fest this Saturday from 12-4 to see the Film For The Maker booth and our new rides all suited up for the ride.
Also, we just went LIVE with our rides too! You can click on the Live Tracking button on the top of our page and then click on the map. This will take to you our shared page through SPOT Tracker which pin points us every 5 minutes and updates you with our location.
We still need just over $8,000 to go to reach our $25,000 goal. 100% of all donations go directly to the House of Hope orphanage at 2nd Mile Missions in the Dominican Republic.
If you can’t make a donation but have stuff you’d like to donate to Cookie Wilson’s Garage Sale for Tour Divide – Tim and Dave. Contact Rebecca Gehrke and she will get you the details on drop off location deadlines. The Garage sale is May 30th-31st
Here are few posts from our training rides! Thanks to everyone for your support and joining Tim and I on this adventure!
House of Hope Update
Rod and Nancy Wildman just recently visited the DR (Dominican Republic) and took these pictures for us! It’s amazing to see the fruits of our faithfulness! Thank you for helping us impact lives! We are all Difference Makers! Keep sending in those donations… we still need to reach $25,000 and we’re currently at $14,300! Check out these pictures:
Post Holiday Updates
It’s been a bit since we last updated everyone on our progress. As for the training it’s been slow going – lots of spinning at the gym and lifting weights! Hopefully the snow will start melting and the weather will warm up so we can get on the roads again!
As for the donations… we’re up to $14,000 of our $25,000 goal! We’re making head way!
We’ve picked up some speaking events: We just finished talking with the Warsaw Community Church Women’s Retreat. We had a great time entertaining and spreading the word about Tour Divide – Tim and Dave!

Warsaw Community Church Women’s Retreat Gig!
Our next gig is a magazine article for Grace College. Nancy Wildman, Tim Devlin, and David Wildman at all Grace College Alum and they are doing an article in the next issue of their magazine about Tour Divide – Tim & Dave! Keep checking back for updates on this.
Mason Geiger Photography and Film have agreed to join us from now until we finish the Tour Divide to document everything. These guys have big plans for this documentary so make sure to follow them. They will also be posting updates, pictures, and videos throughout the ride. So make sure to follow them and us on Facebook!
On the 22nd of February we meet with Summit City Bikes to discuss a partnership with them! We can’t wait to see what the future hold this!
Also, check out our new Thank You! page and see all our current supporters.
That’s the short and sweet version. Keep checking back as we have 3 months until we depart. Lots to start happening between now and then!
Oh yeah we almost forgot… Tim got engaged too! So the pressure is really on for us to make in 34 days or less. They set a date for July 26th!
Another Donation!
Thank you to Drew and Bobbi Scholl for joining us on the journey of raising $25,000 to help 2nd Mile Missions build their orphanage in the Dominican Republic! Drew and
Bobbi decided they wanted to trade our 1 push up for every dollar raised to see how many Star Jumps we could do. They offered Tim and I $1 each for as many Star Jumps as we could complete in 2 minutes!
We still need your help! Keep sending in those donations to help Tim and I complete the Tour Divide Route (2,740 miles through the Rocky Mountains – Mexico to Banff, AB) and raise money for the 2nd Mile Missions orphanage!

125 push ups for $125

$125 dollars donated = 125 push ups. Tim and Dave admit this might not have been such a great idea, but if it helps change a kids life then bring it on. Keep those donations coming in and watch us suffer as we do the 1 push up for every $1 donated!

What A Way To Start The Day!
Our first donation came in today! Thank you Anna Boze! We are now $100 closer to our goal of $25,000 and we can’t accomplish this with out YOU! Start sending in those donations as soon as you can! Donations of any kind can be mailed in or submitted online – click HERE to donate online or download our brochure to mail in your donation.
Tim and Dave want everyone to know that they can’t accomplish this alone (both the ride and raising support). We need the support of our community to come together and help make a difference in a child’s life. Let’s help 2nd Mile Missions get this orphanage built!
As soon as we can we’ll have a donation tracker up for everyone to see our progress!
Thanks!
Tim & Dave
