I spoke with Gretchen, Kenny’s Crew Chief at 4:30 A.M. PDT today. I told her to call me ANY time as I needed an update. Mobile phone coverage is spotty out there in Eastern Colorado and Kansas!

Kenny had a great day! After another long rest in Alamosa, CO, Kenny got on the bike and this time, the legs seemed to be cooperating. Gretchen tells me Kenny requested the time-trial bike and the crew mounted the rear disk wheel. There’s something about the time-trial bike and the constant

On Tuesday night, Kenny arrives in Durango, CO with the intention of taking the mandatory two-hour rest and continuing on. However, he isn’t in any condition to continue so he and the crew elect to take an additional 5-hour rest. Kenny checks into a hotel and rests. I do the same.

Kenny takes off and gets the legs moving while the crew takes care of his every need. They feed him, pump up the

The alarm rings at 5 A.M. It’s Monday morning, I wake up, pack some clothes, camera gear and head into work to take care of a few last details before heading to the airport. I’m flying to Phoenix to intercept Kenny Souza on day two of his Race Across America (RAAM).

From Phoenix, I drive to Flagstaff and arrive just after Kenny checks in to the time station. He’s just ridden almost 500 miles straight. I bang on the door of the motor home with my camera around my neck and ask if I can
