SANTA CRUZ, California (KSBW) — Tyler Mitic is biking the entire California coastline, from the northernmost part of the state to the border with Mexico, to raise money for the mental health nonprofit Bring Change to Mind.
Along the way, Mitic is inviting people to join him on his tandem bicycle, aiming to spread kindness, hear their stories, and raise awareness about mental health issues.
“Had a really hard year of mental health. And so, when I struggle, one of the things that’s always brought me back is talking to the people around me. Nature,” Mitic said.
Mitic arrived in Santa Cruz today and will soon head toward Monterey County. He is asking for donations to Bring Change to Mind, which was co-founded by actress and activist Glenn Close. Mitic is also looking for more passengers to join him on his journey.
