The film series is one part of the initiatives of THE WHITE LINE, an inspiring new non-profit organization created to celebrate the enduring spirit and love for life embodied by Magnus White, a dedicated 17-year-old U.S. National Team cyclist who was struck and killed by a driver while training in his hometown. Magnus White's legacy transcends his recognition as a rising cycling talent; he was the ever-smiling Magnus, whose devotion to family, friends, and the sheer joy of living left an unforgettable impact on those around him. THE WHITE LINE is accepting donations immediately.
Michael White, Magnus’s father, expressed the organization's commitment, saying, "Because of the generous donations we received from Magnus’s GoFundMe, we are able to launch the foundation with funds. THE WHITE LINE is more than a tribute; it's a commitment to fostering a community where cyclists can pursue their passion safely, with the spirit of Magnus as our guiding light. We invite everyone to join us in celebrating life, inspiration, and the joy of cycling. We hope to partner with organizations outside of cycling to help make our roads safer for all users.”
Our Mission:
To preserve, honor, and use the legacy of Magnus White to inspire cyclists globally, to support their development, to raise awareness of bicycle and automobile safety, and create change for safer cycling environments.
Our Vision:
