You Can Ride With Us

We’re making a documentary about our 2025 Scooter Iceland ride, directed by and co-produced by JSB Video. and The Valhalla Fund.

 

This project follows riders and crew traveling from Seaside, Oregon, to South Padre Island, Texas, to raise awareness and funds for pulmonary fibrosis through The Valhalla Fund.

 

The film captures the meaning behind the miles—the grief that started it, the friendships that keep it moving, and the healing found on the open road.​It’s not just about the ride.

 

It’s about purpose, family, and finding light after loss. Every frame reflects why we ride: for those who can’t.

100% of the Money Raised Benefits Pulmonary Fibrosis Awareness and Research​​

Welcome to ScooterIceland, where passion meets purpose in the fight against pulmonary fibrosis!

 

Our nonprofit organization is fueled by a deeply personal journey, ignited by my father's courageous battle with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. In 2023, we embarked on an extraordinary expedition to Iceland, raising funds and awareness for this vital cause.​ 

 

Now, in 2025, we are thrilled to announce ScooterIceland 2025: a remarkable 3,800-mile journey from Seaside, Oregon, to Padre Island, Texas. This monumental journey is more than just a ride—it’s a mission to raise funds and bring visibility to the fight against Pulmonary Fibrosis. It’s a testament to our unwavering dedication to making a difference, driven by a shared purpose and a commitment to creating lasting impact.

 

Every dollar raised during this expedition will directly impact those affected by pulmonary fibrosis, bringing hope and support where it's needed most.​  Our mission is clear: to unite riders in a shared purpose, to raise awareness, and to propel research efforts forward in the fight against pulmonary fibrosis. Each mile we ride, each donation we secure, brings us closer to a world free from this debilitating disease.

We kept the name "Scooter Iceland" as a heartfelt nod to our family heritage and the profound inspiration we draw from our 2023 journey around Iceland. That expedition, dedicated to my father's battle with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, became a defining moment for our mission, blending purpose with adventure and rallying support for those affected by this disease. As we prepare for ScooterIceland 2025, the name reminds us of the enduring strength of family, the beauty of our Icelandic roots, and the shared commitment to raising awareness and funds in the fight against pulmonary fibrosis. It’s more than a name—it’s a symbol of hope, unity, and the enduring spirit of our cause.
