I'd like to thank everybody for all the support they've been giving my son to complete his tasks. Yesterday he finished his 1,000th consecutive day of riding his bicycle to school. He started the first day of kindergarten and finished up yesterday even though school is out. It's been a fun journey.... South Dakota doesn't have the best weather.

This is what we need.

Kudos to him! He's a real member of the "hardmen". It's not just the pros or old school stories, but ones like this. In a cold climate with such consistency!

I can't think of many adults that could keep up with even something super simple for 1000 days, much less using your bike to commute.

Yeah. Always nice to see kids on a real bike. Vs a $60 bike from Walmart.

Super impressive!! I have tried and failed to do 100 days of running every day for years.. 1000 days of consistency shows real character!

This is very impressive. Congratulations to the both of you. My friend and ex-teammate is over 10,000. Your son will catch him in (almost) no time!
