What parents are saying about their 100Pedals experiences…

“Thank you for speaking last evening in Scranton. I found a lot of strength in your words. I’m a loving sister and girlfriend to two amazing people that like your son are going through the their own journey of recovery from heroin. Your story told from your point of view was both enlightening and empowering. I had a long conversation with my parents today and for the first time was able to connect with them as a supportive daughter to their needs. I didn’t truly understand what they were going through… Your words have changed my life and your story very similar two my family. Thank you for reminding me that life is for the living and it’s okay to be happy through all this. Finding happiness during the hardest times of your life is the best gift you can give yourself and I agree with you 100% it will help you find clarity to deal with all the bad days. The gift of clarity you’ve passed to a complete stranger like myself is one I will always be grateful for.” ~ Sara from Scranton

“Loved “After-the-Shock,” short and to the point, and not just for recovery…I love what you are doing and your passion for helping parents in the midst of what only can be considered ‘the worst nightmare ever.” ~Belinda M.

Dave, 100Pedals completely changed my life.” ~ A. B.

Dave captures the struggle every parent faces when they set 18 years of love free to make its own decisions. The reality is that sometimes, even when you do everything (mostly) right, things can go wrong for your child. Every parent has faced, or will face, the moment when they have to step back and let their child find their own way. Every parent fears that their child’s own way won’t be what is hoped for. This book provides fantastic insight into how to deal with that reality.” ~ Phoebe B.

I always know that a book has touched me, when I’m in tears at the end. Yours was one of those. It is so well written and tells such a heartwarming story full of inspiration and hope! Thank you for sharing your journey! ~ Cathy T.

Dave, one of the most impressive aspects of your program is that you help people in this situation [a child with addiction] to get unstuck. Too many times these parents just get stuck. And, you show them how to do it by doing something positive for themselves. This is so important!” ~ Lori S.

“Dave Cooke has written a raw account of his (continued) painful journey through his son’s heroin addiction. Dave details how he chose to focus on his own positive end result rather than getting sucked into the destructive cycle of addiction. This isn’t a story of the in’s and out’s of drug addiction. This is a story of Dave’s vision, faith and triumph. A must read for those who are going through personal struggle of any kind as the uplifting lesson of 100Pedals is interchangeable.” ~ Marnie W.

You have had an impact on my life in ways you cannot imagine. You have made such a difference. I will always be grateful for what you have done for me.” ~ M.T.
