Monterey Baby!!! (A very delayed post)

Emotions are high as we pedaled the final few days into Monterey California. Not enough hours in the ride to spend with everyone and not enough hours off the bike to embrace our last days together. I cannot believe I have only known these friends for 80 days because this summer has seemed like an eternity. The nerves of riding across the US and the flat land of Florida was so long ago it is hard to remember. By we did it! 4200 miles down, 17 build days, 31 new friends and endless memories. Oh and huge quads and epic tan lines.
Thank you so much for following our trip on this blog. I didn't quite keep up with this as well as I had hoped but if you are curious about anything I didn't cover, Molly B. has a blog from everyday. Her blog is listed to the right called Adventure Awaits.
Our group collectively raised over $160,000 and it was all due to generous donations from folks like you. Thank you so much for making a difference in all the lives of the homes we helped build, the homes our grant money will build and for making this bike ride possible for me. It has been a dream of mine to ride across the country and it still as not sunk in what we just achieved!
