The Trekkers blasted through a 106 mile final 24 hour push through hills, dips and New York City traffic before arriving to the Atlantic Ocean boardwalk. Despite getting about 4 hours sleep, the cyclists were beyond excited to have accomplished their 3,500+ mile ride.
The determined group completed their Trek to Coney Island's beach with a joyous crowd of family eagerly waiting. After taking a quick dip in the ocean, everyone headed to a nearby restaurant for some gourmet NYC pizza. It was a thrilling afternoon for the cyclists and the families to celebrate such a massive accomplishment.
It has been amazing to watch a group of strangers unite and become a force of strength through mountains, rain, hail (!!), deserts, forests and thousands of miles. Across America was a whirlwind ride of a lifetime, and we send our congratulations to everyone.
Teen Treks wishes you all the very best as you part ways, even out your tans and catch up on sleep. Have a wonderful summer!
To all of the Trekkers, Leaders, families, friends, strangers, bike shop employees and everyone in between: THANK YOU!
Way to go Across America!
