Hey Folks,
It’s Tuesday morning. . . .Everyone is here, happy and healthy. I think Shannon’s Soldiers have enough food stuffed in their motor home to make it to New Jersey without stopping. . .it looked tasty too. I think we’ll just follow along behind and pick up the crumbs they leave in their wake. We all leave at 5 pm EST and travel on up a little mountain range and down into the California and Arizona desert for few hundred miles. Our riders and crew are pumped and ready to move. We’re leavening Oceanside with our chief, Ken Edmonds, Dawn Wilson, Rick Rickards, and John McCarthy crewing. We’ll lose Rick and pick up Dan Kendra and Doug Slemmer 24 hours into the race in Prescott Arizona. I think I’ll be riding during that leg. I’m reminded of a tee shirt my wife showed me one time about two skeletons sitting leaning against a cactus with the caption, “Yes, but it’s a dry heat”.
More to come!

Thanks for doing this for all of us who are affected by NF. My daughter, Sandra, has also done a lot of fundraising for CTF, and your participation in the race inspires us to continue our own fight. We hope that you have a safe journey and will be checking in on your progress.
