Re: Race Across America (RAAM)

At their current pace Jeff and Kevin will cross the finish line today between 1700 and 1730 EDT- and will be the first to cross it. There's an 8 person team that left 3 days after them that is averging almost 24 mph that will be about 3-4 hours behind them, The first solo rider to cross will come in sometime on Tuesday (less then 9 days for 3000+ miles).
Again checkout the website as it has pictures- live updates= stats- etc. on it.
Team Fixies Rock!!!
