Day 62/August 30 – Sussex to Jersey City – 98km






The last ride – wow I cannot even believe it – it was here, and it is gone. We had to meet at a staging area 15km outside Jersey City. We got police escorted into Jersey because it was too busy to drive in. Seeing the Empire State building, Statue of Liberty – it was all so surreal.

As we were riding into Liberty State park there were tons of people there cheering – it was so cool to see all the support. Yet again, I couldn’t believe that I had just biked across an entire continent, seen some of the most spectacular scenery, and met many upon many amazing people. It’ll take awhile to “soak” in all of this goodness.
