A run-down of the people on the bike trip

There are 47 people (of all ages) riding all the way across the country, and 25 more people who will be riding one of the four segments of the journey. Two young guys are from Switzerland, one guy from Scotland, who now lives in England (Newcastle upon Tyne), two from Toronto (Ontario), one from Hong Kong, and the rest from the following US cities: Santa Rosa, CA, Austin, TX, Colorado Springs, CO, Portland, ME, Erie, PA, Pea Ridge, AR, Newtown, CT, Larchmont, NY, Dover, NH, Jackson, WY, Newburgh, IN, Columbia, MD, Boulder, CO, Glenview, IL, Newport, ME, Redondo Beach, CA, Berthoud, CO, Tucson, AZ, Jasper, GA, Sammamish, WA, Westlake, OH, New York, NY, Fishers, IN, Havana, IL, Ann Arbor, MI, Cedar Falls, IA, Greenwich, CT, Coquille, OR, Keller, TX (Tom, my roommate), Barnes, WI, Duluth, MN, Camp Hill, PA, Bloomington, MN, Deerfield, NH, Salt Lake City, UT, Sandy, UT, Lawton, OK, Carpinteria, CA, San Francisco, CA, and of course, me (San Diego, CA). There are four MD's in the group, and nearly everyone has left behind a spouse and kids. Maybe it's like going in the military and people coming from all over the country. Very nice people - seemingly normal.....
