Wow! Where have the last few months gone?? We are t-minus
one week from our big journey. The last couple of months have gone by in the
blink of an eye and the last few weeks have been even faster than that! All
free of school and jobs, the vagabonds have been hard at work, packing,
training planning, saying goodbye, visiting sponsors and geekin’ out…only a
little though. We cannot thank you all enough for the crazy amount of support.
Moab has really hooked us up and worked with us since the start, Swiftwick
treated us like kings by inviting us to the headquarters and sending us out
with lots of swag, Ride for Reading set us up with some jerseys, and most
importantly of all, we have gained a tremendous amount of support from friends,
family, acquaintances and random strangers. Last Saturday Gayle Jordan offered
up her beautiful farm for a farewell celebration, a chance for friends and
family to gather and a last effort to make some major donations for our ride.
The donations mean a lot, but the words of encouragement mean the world. We
cannot express how much it means for people to have confidence in us. And we
have made it this far. We have the major obstacle left of getting our things on
the plane…what a headache!... and getting started. Which is the hardest part
right? We will be updating you all along the way so be sure to tune into our
blog more often. We are so excited to actually get going and share this
experience with everyone. Keep the support coming guys! We've got a long way to
go!
Thanks MOAB!
