Once again Matthew, congratulations! Cool that you did the whole ride on memory. That's awesome!
Like I said in an earlier post, wish I could have been there at the border with a cold Tecate and fresh lime for you, but still here in Venezuela rooting for you from a distance.
The whole blue dot thing is very cool. It was fun tracking you through the distance, but of course my favorite part is New Mexico. You rode through the heart of my territory starting around the Jemez Mtns north of Cuba, criss-crossing the spine of the CD to the border. I can visualize nearly every mile of that country. I got to live vicariously watching that little blue dot.
You and all the riders participating are a true inspiration...even motivating me to ride a little farther and harder on my morning rides. I really want to do this ride (remember I told you I did the Bikecentennial's pre-cursor back in 1981?).
Congratulations on the first to arrive safely at Antelope Wells, but I consider all the finishers (and starters) winners to take on this great (giant) ride.
Congrats Matthew

Also congrats on you pending fatherhood.
