Where Has the Year Gone?

It is hard to believe that a year ago today, 27 strangers met in Jacksonville, FL and set out on an adventure of a life time.

Before we left Monterey, I left a message for next years riders (SUS 2013).  Sadly the van and trailer we used were sold so all we have left is this picture.

So here's to the newest members of SUS.  May you have enough:

• Tubes to get you across the country
• Headwinds and hills to make you cherish 7% downhill grades
• Laughter to get you through those flats and hills and headwinds and humidity
• Sunscreen to keep your skin from burning in the hot Southern heat
• Blue and cliff bars to get you to lunch, and second lunch and dinner
• Time to stop and smell the roses (seriously stop at all the random places along the way)

But above all, may you enjoy the company of your fellow riders and learn from those you meet along the way.
