About John Cleary
I started cycling when I was twenty-six and began entering international distance triathlons.
I developed a passion for cycling and began following The Race Across America. I dreamed of riding across the country one day.
After working for 15 years in law enforcement with the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, I retired and began planning my ride across the United States.
My ride across the country took on a much deeper meaning when a dear friend, my best friend’s wife, was diagnosed with ALS. Seeing someone I care about face such a devastating disease made me want to do more than ride. It made me want to help in some way. When my close friends created Coast2Coast4ALS, I knew I had found the perfect avenue to turn my journey into a mission.
This ride is more than a challenge. It’s a tribute to the ALS community, and to everyone who refuses to give up hope. I’m riding for them, and for a future without ALS.
