2022 Cross Canada tour against cancer - Solo bikepacking | Vent dans le dos contre la maladie

2022 Solo Canada cycling trip, from Vancouver (BC) to Halifax (NS) to fundraise research against pancreatic cancer. 🇫🇷🚲🇨🇦 100 days condensed into 18 minutes. Canada from May to September, from West to East, from earth to sky. So many dimensions that give us to appreciate the greatness of the journey. A journey punctuated by daily but extraordinary encounters, leaving the heart heavy when I had to hit the road again. I keep many memories of these vast wilderness areas, these stories to tell and I feel an endless gratitude for the people who have contributed, here or over there, to give hope to the sick people and those who made this adventure a once in a lifetime experience. To date, 24128 CAD / 16640€ have been donated for pancreatic cancer research (PRISM Program conducted by Gustave Roussy Cancer research center located in Paris area​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠) by nearly 300 generous people in France and Canada (including participants of the charity BBQ before departure) Started on May 27th, arrived Sept. 2nd, 2022 - (100 days) 8744 kilometers traveled.
