My friend and I plan to take next year off to ride our bicycles down the west coast to Argentina, and back up the east coast to Canada and then across the country - ending back in Vancouver.
We are also planning a 100 mile diet for the entire duration of the trip; promoting local food and community living.
I guess you could say we're riding in the name of 'sustainability' - what ever that means.. global awareness, de-motorize your soul etc.
We'd like to fund the trip with sponsors, grants and through fundraising.
Do you have any thoughts as to where to start? How do we approach businesses?

We're all ears if you have a minute to let us know what you think.
