Less then 2 hours till Race Time!

Our team is now doing it's thing! We moved out of the hotel, loaded trailers, vans & RV's and we are all on our way. Here's what it looks like. The 4 racers who will be riding the 1st leg are in the rider van at the pier awaiting the race start at 2pm. Good luck guys! They also have another van-the Follow Van-with them and it will begin following them around mile 21 (first part of race is along bike path and no vehicles are allowed). The racer RV, crew RV and utility van are all headed to the 1st exchange point which is located near a border patrol station here in CA at mile 186.7 into the race. Once there, we will prepare for the arrival of the 4 racers who will be fed and climb in their RV for their rest while the 4 rested racers will start their 1st shift on the road. It's at this point that Kyle and I will begin our first shift as rider van driver & navigator for the next several hours. Kyle, the navigator, will keep us on course per the route book while I will drive our van and keep the racers moving up the road. Our racers will be Jerry Willis, Daniel Schneider, Tom and Lonny. Here we go!
