From the Biker...

 Just wanted to comment on all the donations we received so far!! 
Thanks so much and keep them coming in!!! Please tell people about the 
trip this cause that I am riding for. My goal is $20 000! I still have 34 days on 
the road and in that time I hope to achieve that goal, if not surpass it.
This journey so far has been unbelievable. Every turn, every accent, decent, town, diner, and all the people I have come across have been incredible. This truly is the journey of a life time. I can't believe all that this country has to offer. People say they would like to explore Europe, I say travel the US first.. 
 I am now 1/4 through my journey, I have burned 64,000 calories, traveled 1130 miles climbed 8 passes, and crossed the Divide. I still have Jackson Hole, (one of my personal favorites), to see, as well as Yellowstone. 
I then get to go over the Continental Divide 4 more times and reach 
11 500 ft at Hoosier Pass in Colorado.. I then go through Kansas, 
Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky Tennessee, and finally Virginia. I hope to see 
your donations and thank you so very much to all of you that took the 
time and heart to help out with the research and funding for this 
wonderful cause. Well...  take care everyone! Talk to you soon.. and for those of you that have any crazy ideas that you want to do... DO THEM!! They will change you forever!!
