I’m elated to be part of another group of young people sharing in the evolving story of the TransAm. After comparing accounts with dozens of cyclists whom we met along the route, it’s clear to me that no cross-country trip is the same. I can’t wait to revisit some of the most spectacular places and welcoming communities, and I’m even more excited to find new ones.
