Day 11 Quemado, NM to Grants, NM

Tomorrow the altitude will go from 7300 feet to 6300 feet, somewhere there will be a neat downhill folks, happy trails. I can see you are in a blank zone for phone service so we will just wait for the blog info.

Excerpted from the Fuller Center Blog by Aaron, one of the Riders.
Today's route unrolled the best scenery of the Southwest. Our 86 mile ride took us through Malpais (bad country) National monument where breathtaking views of lava rock and wide open space awaited around every turn. With each of us still feeling a little sore, we rode together as a group at a moderate pace soaking in the vistas. Some highlights for the day included a fly-over by two F-16s and numerous beautiful photo opportunities at the magnificent "The Narrows" cliffs. Enjoying our riding time together as a group, this is by far the best day of riding. Since the experience is all somewhat a blur in my mind, I will try and post some additional photos to do the talking for me. Enjoy

August 8 The End of a Perfect Ride!

Thanks for hanging in there for Tony, he made the Atlantic and dipped his front tire into the water. The bikers were overjoyed to be at the finish line, but this is just the beginning of a lifelong commitment for them to help others and spread the word! Final statistics for Tony’s bike trip across America Total days: 56 Total biking days: 45 Average miles per day: 75 Total miles: 3322 Less truck driving days and breakdowns (broken spokes, etc): 404 Miles biked by Tony: 3017 (probably among the top 3) Total broken spokes by Tony: 5 Total broken spokes by everyone else: 0 Total flats by Tony: about 13 Total flats by everyone else: unknown – one person only had 3 Total money raised to date: $5,088 which means somewhere in the Democratic Republic of the Congo an entire house will be built with the funds raised by my friends and relatives – THANK YOU!
