Update - July 24, 2025, 1:25 p.m.
Still have a photo (probably taken by Caryn?) of my first Agony Ride, 22 years ago. I miss these guys I got to ride with!
Agony ride #20 for me. I should probably check in with a mental health professional. But I don't have time.
Thanks to a few very generous supporters this year, I'm raising my goal. I know it's possible!

Rachel Jamison
You must be sore. Thanks for the sacrifice every year!
Jonathan: thanks Rachel - missed your husband out there!
-
Jennifer, Kendall's mom :)
I am crying in Virginia, seeing how many rides you've done, the amazing amount of money you've raised and the infinite, eternal impact it will have in people's lives and God's Kingdom!! May God bless your efforts in ways we can't even imagine and may you rest well tonight! :) Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be the glory. Ephesians 3:20-21
Jonathan: thank you, Jennifer! We're very grateful for Kendall's commitment to students at the Ranch. Thanks for loaning her out!

The Tippetts
You made it through the night! You have the road weary look on your face and your body is aching in all the wrong places...and even so....you will ride on for the joy set before you (like sitting on a couch with your wife and kids eating a cheeseburger and milkshake lol) Praying for second, third, and fourth winds to get you through the last hours 🙏 You got this Jonathan!

An encouraged spirit
Thank you for your incredible dedication and unwavering commitment as you ride to change young lives. Your endurance, courage, and selfless spirit are a true reflection of Christ’s love in action. Every mile you pedal not only raises funds but also brings hope, healing, and opportunity to youth who need it most. Your efforts are a powerful testimony of faith, and your willingness to push beyond limits is inspiring to all of us. May God strengthen you through every moment of this journey, and may the impact of your ride reach far beyond the finish line. We are cheering you on and praying for blessings over you and the youth this ministry serves.
Jonathan: thank you
