Philip M Keating Fund for the Future.
"Phil's Fund" is a donor-advised charitable fund of the Arlington Community Foundation. The Fund will make grants to various organizations to which Phil volunteered his efforts, time, and talents.

On May 28, 2013 a group of four fit and ambitious friends of Phil, led by his good friend, Luis Gendive, soccer coach and native of Spain, will leave Yorktown, Virginia and pedal around 3,500 miles to San Francisco, California. Tentative plans are for some members of Phil's family to ride the first leg of the trip. If your not able to join the team on your bike, you can support them with a financial donation!

Day 12 complete

Today we have completed our third century. The terrain has gotten flat and our riders have been flying.  In the morning, we covered 65 miles and in the afternoon in less than 3 hours, we covered 35 miles.  We are making good progress, we have finished 1/4 of the trip, and got three thousand miles left. We are 55 miles away from Illinois, we will be there first thing in the morning. We found a nice hostile, the First Baptist Church in Sebree, welcome cyclist, they have a great facility, and are wonderful people. We are grateful to have found nice people in Kentucky. They only bad thing is dogs chasing us, they try to bit us, but we just spray water at them and they stop.
