We (the crew) had an inspirational night watching our guys hammer up those hills all night long. After a long night, we were all thrilled to see the sun come up just as we came into Hope, Arizona. It was such a profound moment. Seeing the slight glimmer of the sunrise and the sign "Hope" within minutes of each other. That moment had many different meanings. It remined us that the sun continues to rise when we are troubled, and there is always hope.
Our ultimate hope...finish the race: The Race Across America and the race to find a cure for NF! We hope, for a brighter future.

Tom Petty was right!
...The waiting is the hardest part.
Team Sami, Drew’s Crew, and Ari’s Angels are all preparing to ride, crew, navigate and hydrate for Saturday afternoon. There are lots of things to finalize before we start -- reflective tape requirements, identification, route rules, starting sequence, inspections, team photos, bike tune-ups. Everybody is stoked. Stay tuned. . .NF Endurance is ready to race.
