June 10, 2007

Although they haven't had good cell phone signals out in the middle of nowhere, the Coast to Coast riders have logged about 240 miles this weekend. Gary reports that on Saturday, June 9th they rode just past Mexican Waters, AZ (approx. 115-120 miles for the day). Today, they expect to make it to Durango, Colorado (another 115-120 miles). They stopped at 4-Corners and took some pictures, which will be shared on the blog as soon as they send them. Surrounded by beautiful mountains, they are making outstanding progress! Way to go, team! We continue to keep you in our prayers and have confidence that you will reach New York City "on time" (just like UPS would want it) and in great form. God speed!

This just in from Albert....(10:00pm EST)....
Days 7 & 8: Here are some pictures from Saturday and Sunday's ride which covered nearly 240 miles. We started in Tuba City, AZ and rode through the Four Corners monument, and then concluded in scenic Durango, CO. Everyone is still in good health and pedaling at a steady pace. The sun continues to cook us even with sunscreen. Some of you are probably wondering that there is no communication between towns. There are no cell phone towers and wireless internet is extremely weak. Hopefully you all will get this and a second e-mail with more pictures. Take care and you will here from us soon.
