Lake Forest High School graduate Anthony Reinert will be on his way this week in cycling more than 8,000 miles back and forth across the county over the next five months.

Reinert, 20, is undertaking the journey to raise awareness of breast cancer, which afflicted both of his grandmothers, and bring attention to the Christine Newman-Affourtit Foundation, a local breast cancer charity focused on preventing breast cancer in Northern Illinois.
