Today was absolutely incredible. The feeling of sprinting across the beach to the Atlantic ocean in victorious conclusion of almost 4000 miles was stronger than any victorious feeling I have ever had. Ride 2 Recovery, and Gus's bike shop organized an honor ride from St. Paul's to Rye Beach this morning. Riding with over 30 people as a cyclists army through the roads in New Hampshire to the coast was so powerful. 

When we got within 5 miles of the coast the flock took the lead and pushed with way too much excitement to the coast. As soon as we saw the sandy beach we took off sprinting to dip our front tires into the beautiful Atlantic ocean. We officially did it! We connected our country from West coast to East coast by bicycle fundraising the whole darn way. 

We owe so many wonderful people a HUGE thank you. The support we have received  from our parents and family is way beyond what we could ever expect. Not to mention the wonderful communities that have hosted us along the way - every meal and every interaction we have had has had a incredible impact on each one of us and this was an experience we will never EVER forget.
