November 05, 2008
At 4:12 pm, November 06, 2008… the transcontinental team consisting of Eric Broberg, Scott Hunthausen, Olin Patterson, ad Peter Eich officially dipped their tires into the Pacific Ocean. They peddled from ocean to ocean in 61 days, 4 hours, 57 minutes and 3 seconds. In an emotional finish ceremony with over 80 people present they were again reunited with their wonderful friends and families.
The earth is rude, silent, incomprehensible at first,
Nature is rude and incomprehensible at first,
Be not discouraged, keep on,
there are divine things well envelop’d,
I swear to you there are divine things-
more beautiful than words can tell.’ -ww
