img_1336Driving from Sutherland, to North Platte, Nebraska, on Highway 30, last Saturday, I happened across a cyclist taking a break on the shoulder of the road.  After driving five miles past him, I decided he looked like he had a story.  So I turned around to see.

Chris Figureida does have a story.  A lot of stories.  A welder by trade, he is cycling from San Francisco to New York to teach kids about the benefits of living a healthy and active life style.

Cycle for Heart is the philanthropic entity Chris began ten years ago with help from sponsors like @Patagonia and Rotary Clubs.

Here’s my interview of Chris:
