Cycling on Purpose is excited to announce special musical performances by up and coming singer songwriter Quincy Robbins. Based in Sandpoint, Idaho, Quincy performs a mix of originals and piano arrangements of popular covers at Inland Northwest venues and events. When she is not behind her piano, you can find her drawing, writing, creating handcrafted jewelry, or mountain biking on her favorite trails.

As a sibling of a child with a mental health disability, Quincy is an advocate for youth mental health and teen struggles through her art and music.

The WHY

In 2021, the surgeon general's advisory, "protecting youth mental health", laid out specific steps to combat the youth mental health crisis. Cycling on Purpose is determined to follow the advice of the surgeon general and connect individuals, families, communities, environments, and societies with practical skills they can use to better support young people today.

"When I found out I was going to be a Dad, a flood of emotion washed over me, including the fear of school shootings, lockdown drills, social media, cyberbullying, a 24-hour doomsday news cycle, the list goes on and on. I kept thinking how in the world can a kid grow up with hope about the future?

I'm riding my bike 2800 miles to raise awareness and money to change laws and regulations around smartphones and social media," Travis Scott, Cycling on Purpose Founder, said.

Riding a bike across the country is more than a physical journey—it’s a powerful statement. Each mile pedaled shines a light on the youth mental health crisis, starting conversations in places where silence often wins. It’s a moving symbol of resilience, reminding others that even the toughest roads can be navigated with purpose, support, and hope.
