"The end is in sight for John Kilbride, a doctor from Scotland who has been pedaling across the country over the past month to raise money and awareness for non-profit that helps those living in less than sanitary conditions in Haiti. ... The organization that Kilbride’s ride is benefiting, SOIL, has been helping improve sanitation in Haiti since 2006 using a process that converts human waste into compost with low-cost technologies that are easy to replicate and require little water." - Matt Hicks.

On August 24 - just hours behind schedule - the now legendary Dr. John Kilbride rode the last leg of his journey accross the island of Manhattan and into Battery Park.

If you're interested in joining or helping John during his trip, ...
