Chilliwack egg farmer cycling across Canada with Terry Fox fundraising team

Starting June 9, Juschka Clarke, an egg farmer from Chilliwack, will embark on a 7,000-kilometre cycling journey across Canada with seven others to support a fundraising event benefiting the Terry Fox Foundation.
The ride is dedicated to Clarke's mother, Inge Drews, who faced cancer on three separate occasions before passing away, and the fundraising event began in 2015 with Darrell Fox to commemorate the anniversary of Terry Fox's Marathon of Hope.
Juschka Clarke, along with a group of seven fellow cyclists, plans to cycle 220 kilometres each day for 32 days straight, beginning at BC Place and concluding in St. John's, Newfoundland, retracing the path of Terry Fox's original journey.
By May 30, the team had raised $540,000 toward their $1 million target, with Clarke emphasizing that their efforts aim to honor Terry's legacy while building upon it.
The ride aims to raise funds and awareness for cancer research while emotionally honoring those affected, with Clarke carrying the names of supporters and her mother during the physically demanding journey.
