The owner of Cooper Pest Solutions & BedBug Central in Lawrenceville teamed up with the Bike the US for MSNorthern Tier riders to bike across the United States.
Phil Cooper is set to cycling from Montana to Seattle in support of Multiple Sclerosis.
This summer has been dubbed Phil’s Summer of Cycling as Cooper has divided his time, he’s currently on a two month sabbatical from work, and efforts into raising money for five different charities. He finished his first ride, Anchor House Ride for Runaways, on July 20.
Cooper is set to complete his journey with Bike the US for MS on Aug. 4.
His other charitable rides include 2013 LIVESTRONG Challenge Philly on Aug. 18, American Diabetes Association Tour de Cure on Sept. 21 and MS150 City to Shore for the Delaware Valley MS Society on Sept. 28 and 29.
This is Cooper’s second summer riding with the Bike the US for MS ride. Last summer he rode from June to August from Virginia to San Francisco, raising nearly $50,000 along the way.
Cooper writes about his cycling on his blog, philacrossamerica.com.
