"I made it home!" Tom's final trip update is up on our website. Tom might be the only person to take a short break from his cross-country ride to go bike a few hundred miles in Europe, then spend a day recreationally riding with a friend, just to hop back on the bike and finish up his trip home. Our thanks to Tom for giving us updates from his epic trip (mostly) with Dean'sSweets, and well done!

Longtime Portland Wheelers volunteer, Tom Roeber, is biking across the country this spring.
