Wes Departs After 500 Miles In 6 Days

Wes departed us from Lund's Landing this morning and began a 90 mile ride to the nearest city where he will rent a car to drive home to Houston, TX.

Our departure with Wes was emotional as we recollected the numerous challenges we overcame together while cycling 500 miles in 6 days! During our ride we confronted brutal headwinds, weathered relentless rain storms, navigated desolate roads under moonlight, and repaired a broken bike rack with limited resources in a small praire town. Given these challenges, we immediately realized that without Wes's help we could not have covered such significant ground in a short period of time.

We thank Wes for joining us and we will miss our commrade on the tough journey ahead.

We Thank Today's Fans For Life:
Jim & Analene Torgerson - Creators and owners of Lund's Landing & Marine who allowed us pitch our tents on their property and who re-opened their cafe so we could buy some ice-cold beverages.
