Well. We made it to Astoria two days ago, the end of our official route. Yesterday we got to see the Pacific Ocean, completing our coast-to-coast goal.
There are a lot of mixed feelings about the tour being over, especially on my end with my stolen bike and all... but more than anything I feel grateful. Grateful for this incredible opportunity and accomplishment; for the generosity of others along the way, particularly when my bike was taken and I was given a loaner to use; and for my three incredible friends who made this tour very special to me.
I plan on writing more, but there is currently a lot going on with us getting transported back to Portland and then eventually our respective final destinations. Until then I just want to thank everyone who has been following the blog and supporting us along the way. This tour has made this summer my best one yet.
