CEM stands for Christian Elder Memorial bike ride, a 16-day 900-mile ride and fundraiser for Kids 'n Kinship done by former Kids 'n Kinship mentor John Elder and his team of riders in loving memory of his son Christian Elder who passed away in 2007.

This year the riders (including John Elder, Kids 'n  Kinship board member Dennis Hill, Kathy Kelly, Bob Porter, Nate Cline, & Kids 'n Kinship former mentor Larry Koehler) are touring the trails in Wisconsin with the help of their road crew Dave Goodermont, Jay Saterbak, & Jim Elder.

To read about their adventure, go to their road diary: http://cem900.com/diary.html
