Hoover Dam or is it Boulder Dam

Tony & I decided to do the tour somewhat.  We just took in the 15 minute movie and the museum and took pictures.  It was so crowded, i had no idea so many people from foreign lands would be so interested in Hoover Dam but judging by the foreign languages that were speaking i'd say it was 80-20.

All Americans should visit the dam in their lifetime, it was a spectacular feat to build that dam to divert the mighty Colorado for power and irrigation throughout the southwest.

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!
