Now he’s been named the winner of the 2009 Will Rogers Humanitarian Award for work that “produces tangible benefits for the community.”

In Cycle Oregon, he’s certainly helped communities all over the state.  Field Guide covered Cycle Oregon as it turned 20 years old and you’ll see Jonathan midway through the story.

Cycle Oregon is much more than a bicycle ride.  It has become the state’s most visible demonstration that urban and rural people can come together.

The next ride by the way is in September, crossing southern Oregon.  It’s already sold out.
