The Adventure Begins!!
We want to thank all of you for the support and encouragement you have given us, and for your support for Verde Valley Young Life. So many people have helped us on our way, many with exceptional skills that they have generously shared. To name a few: Wes Lusher of Young Life Committee who designed the pledge letter; Mark Peterson of Sign-A-Rama in Flagstaff who provided the signage for our support vehicle; Steve at Absolute Bikes in Village of Oak Creek for special services in preparing the bike and assistance in provision of spare parts; and Weslie Surprenant, our friend from Minnesota, who established the Coast to Coast for Kids blog.
A special thank you to Pastor Paul of Wayside Chapel and Pastor Frank of Christ Center Wesleyan for allowing us to share the vision of Young Life and the ride with their church congregations.
Support has been tremendous, not only in the Verde Valley, but from as far away as England, Wales, the Channel Islands, Canada, and many other locations around the United States. We are truly humbled and excited by this support.
Check back here for progress updates which will be posted when internet services are available along the course route.
Yours on the road,
Don and Penny

Don and Penny,
How I wish we could have been there to see the start of this adventure. Don, remember the beginning of Steve's ultra in Vermont with Chariots of Fire playing in the background? You should have had at least that!! We'll follow you with great interest and can't wait to see you both in Hilton Head.
Love ya,
Steve and Anna
Good luck...
