Cycling along with Keith Primeau (centre) are Mark Young and Brian Young, Primeau’s partners with Rebox, a Montreal-based company that specializes in reusing boxes rather than recycling them.
Keith Primeau has been involved in several charities since retiring in 2006 after 15 NHL seasons. His latest endeavour is taking him on a bike ride halfway around the world.
Primeau, 46, is participating in Courage in Motion 2018, a five-day cycling trip through Israel to raise money for Beit Halochem Canada, which provides aid to disabled veterans in Israel. Proceeds from the ride will be used toward purchasing cycling equipment, including customized hand bikes and single and tandem bicycles, as well as funding cycling programs.
Courage in Motion is taking place Oct. 22-26 in Israel.
