65 days after leaving Union Station, Washington we rode triumphantly over the Golden Gate Bridge into San Francisco and very suddenly our trans-continental journey was over. We'd cycled 3590 miles for the Bone Cancer Research Trust spread over 52 days.
Apologies to those regularly Team Bones followers but we won't be posting a full update until next week when we are back in the U.K. However that belated final installment will be rich with hilarious anecdotes and breathtaking photographs that should aptly describe the final leg of our journey as well as filling a few of the gaps that have appeared in the blog along the way. Hopefully it will be well worth the wait.
Thanks to everyone who's been so generous in supporting our journey across Washington D.C, Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, Utah, Nevada and California. Your donations and encouraging/inspirational messages kept us going the whole way.
