Hey Steve,

I ran into your dad yesterday and he told me of your journey. I'll be checking your progress here frequently and living vicariously. Post lots of photos!

May your perseverance and strength hold out longer than your bicycle.

Cheers and Bon Voyage,
Bill Kantor

Hate to see a fellow rider huddled in the foliage arms crossed, trying to escape a typcal new england spring deluge. I am glad I was able to provide a bit of a reprive for you 'till the rain let up. Good luck on your grand voyage and I look foward to watching your progress. Stay strong mentally and everything will fall into place!
Peace, Pierre, Barkhamsted CT

Hey Steve,

It was great to see you a few weeks ago at my wedding. This trip is going to be awesome and I can't wait to read about your adventures of the coming weeks and months.

Cycle hard, and remember, the road is all downhill with a tailwind one you get out of Boston,
