Welcome!

Hi guys,
just a brief intro into who we are and what this is all about...

Three students from Liverpool University- Hal Roberts, Sam Jones and Dave Chapman are planning on riding coast to coast of the USA in the summer of 2010. We are doing this raising money for the worthy cause of CLIC Sargent- a charity raising money for children suffering with cancer and leukemia- a worthy cause I'm sure you'll agree. Have a look at their website to check out their good work If you feel the need to donate anything towards our optimistic target of £3000, then check out our donation page at http://www.justgiving.com/TransUSA.
We also have a facebook group here. The trip itself will happen between July and September 2010, and will be taking in around 3800 miles and nine states. We are planning on doing the trip totally unassisted carrying all of our camping gear, clothes and food.

On this blog we'll be posting all the updates from our training, preparation and a collection of our best photos and videos, be sure to check back regularly! This trip is much more of a challenge than anything any of us have done before, so please make it worthwhile for us and donate for a fantastic cause.

Thanks for now,
Hal, Sam and Dave
