Eric did not call me with any recent updates, but late Friday night, he showed up at home. Apparently, the challenge was not on the up and up. A lot of things were happening, both on the part of the organizers and by other riders that were making the challenge something that Eric could no longer find himself ethically being involved with. So, he came home. He still made it from Key West, FL to southwest Washington in 6 days, which is not bad!
He was disappointed that the event was not legitimate, as it was something he had been so proud to be a part of, and something that made his heart stir, to push himself to the limit doing something he loves so much. He walked away with his integrity intact and still had an amazing adventure!
