Gary Christopher is no ordinary Philadelphia fan. He loves all of his teams; he calls himself a "five for five Philadelphia sports fan." He loves them so much, he wants to show the entire United States just how great Philadelphia sports fans can be.

Christopher is starting an 11-week journey where he will bike across the continental United States. Starting in Oregon, he will traverse the country, eventually ending in New Jersey. And he's doing so to raise money for Make-A-Wish Philadelphia.

"One thing that is very important to me is to give back to the community and kids in general," Christopher said.
