Big Ol’ Jerry Tour
The Big Ol’ Jerry Tour is a journey fueled by adventure, determination, and community—values that reflect the spirit of Kenneth McAlpine, in whose honor the Team GIVE’R Foundation was created.
On July 19th, 2025, Daniel McAlpine and Mitch Boysen will embark on an epic bikepacking journey from Anchorage, Alaska to Rossland, BC, covering over 4,300km to raise funds for the Team GIVE’R Foundation.
Through this journey, The Big Ol’ Jerry Tour aims to raise awareness and funds to support the Bursary and GIVE’R Grant recipients, helping them pursue their passions and make a lasting impact.
This ride is not just about covering distance; it’s about bringing people together, embracing the beauty of the adventure, and pushing limits for a greater purpose.

In 2023, Daniel rode from Collingwood, ON to Rossland, BC. With the incredible support from the communities in Collingwood and Rossland during our first ride two years ago, Daniel raised over $9,000.
This year, the goal is to raise $12,000 to expand the foundation’s reach and positively impact even more youth.
