Tour day 49. Last day

Well Friday 6/28 is my last day for my great United States cross country adventure. 17 miles to go. Dip my wheel in the Atlantic ocean. From one side of this phenomenal country to the other. 49 days total, 43 riding days, century's (100 miles) rode, 15 states crossed, mountains ascended, mountains descended, deserts crossed, snow, rain, flat land, hills, wind, crosswind, headwind, some tail winds, sun, clouds, blowing sand, beauty, water, flooding, 5 broken spokes, 7 flat tires, sticky brakes, scenery to behold, friendships made, broke my bike, bruised ribs, bruised body, dont care, new bikes, bucket list achieved, pushed myself to the limit and more and more. What a wonderful 7 weeks. Would not trade it for anything. Would I do it again. Yes.

Was an adventurous trip to the beach but we all made it. This is the group getting ready to finish.

Tom G was not able to complete the ride to the beach but he was in our thoughts. The group at the beach. 

My buddy Peyton tossed his bike in the ocean. Took a little dip. The group picture on the wall.

Going left to right from top picture; Tom Crossroads, Ken, Judi, Sohrab, Greg, Bill, Linda, Jeff, Charlie, Me, Ovi , Heinz, Elizabeth, Howard, Nan, Peyton Crossroads, Paula Farmer Crossroads. A wonderful group of people of who I am very privileged to know. 

Speaking of privileged to know it's the whole  Crossroads group. Dana, Paula,Tom, Rick, Peyton, Debbie, Kim and Jim. Could not of prevailed without the group. They were at your bekon call.  Provided everything for everyone no matter what you needed. Food, drink, support,  ride if needed, detailed directions, hotels, tubes, tires, other pieces and parts for your bike, kept an eye on you in the support vehicles, in contact no matter where you were, dinner at restaurants, catered dinners, technical support, fixed everything, I would recommend  Crossroads Cycling Adventures if you were considering crossing this beautiful country. 

Thanks for following.
