19,000km and the US National Parks
After 190 days on the road, Will and I have now cycled 19,000km and made it to the Grand Canyon with our USA cycling teammates Anna and Reece. After a brief period apart we are now back together as a pack of 4 to take on the vast emptiness of eastern Arizona and New Mexico. The last 10 days have taken us through some of the iconic national parks of the western United States. It has quite simply been the most breathtaking scenery of the entire trip.
We’ve also reached yet another fundraising milestone as the counter has now gone over £17,000. Thanks once again to everyone for the amazing support you have shown. Only 4500km to go now, starting with an evil mountainous 160km desert crossing tomorrow to bridge the gap to Kayenta, AZ – I’d better get some sleep. Here are some photos and captions from the last 2 weeks.
Brilliant photos guys. Only about another 6 weeks to go – is that about right? Annsie xx 🐛
Hi Guys,
Brings back memories Johan, really beautiful ones.
Go well.
Mike.
Looking at the pictures makes me homesick! Fabulous photos and stunning scenery. Good luck to you all on your last leg. Enjoy the burgers, fries and doughnuts! Love, Mary
19,000 km !!!! I haven’t been on a bike for forty years and my legs still feel like jelly!! You are real champions.

Make an OLD engineer happy.
Have you replaced your bike frame?
Or how is that ulsdan clamp getting on?

David, the bike is still running! I just try not to overload it then it doesn’t wobble so much. Fully expect her to get me to Miami now though…
