The American Lung Association provides orientation sessions on bicycling touring, physical condi- tioning and obtaining pledges. The lung association also provides support vehicles, necessary logis- tal support for the trek, most meals and the overnight accommoda- tions. Bike trekking is similar to bike touring but with a few extras. We help the trekker before the event by teaching biking techniques, equipment maintenance, cycling laws and sensible physical condi- tioning. Also, the trek is different from most organized rides in that trekkers are performing a valuable community service. Trekkers raise funds by obtaining sponsors to pledge their ride in support of the American Lung Association's pro- grams on the hazards of air pollu- tion and how the community can do their part in ridding the air of pollutants and the hazards of ciga- rette smoking among our youth. In addition to raising money, the trek demonstrates the value of clean air, good lungs and good health. More information about the bicycle trek and to receive applica- tions for the trek can be obtained by phoning the American Lung Association at 717-622-30500r 1- 800-932-0903.
