The coast to coast ride would not have been possible without the Cycle America staff volunteers who provided a wide range of support including food preparation, mapping routes, luggage transportation, and bike repairs.

Week 4 began at Devils Tower, which in 1906, became the country's first National Monument.

Riders from Canada, like Lloyd, also found the trip across America to be a worth while endeavor.

The ride across South Dakota was full of sight seeing opportunities like this side trip to Crazy Horse Memorial.

Carving of the Crazy Horse Memorial began in 1949 to honor the great heros of the Indian tribes, but as seen by the sculptor's scaled version, it is still a work in progress.

The hills along Needles Highway are nothing that these two Dutch men, Paul and Roy, can't handle.

Riding though the first of many tunnels carved out of the rock formations along Needles Highway.

Stopping to enjoy the distant view of Mount Rushmore from the Peter Norbeck Overlook.

The infamous "white board" was one of the first things a biker looked for upon arrival at the destination of each day's ride because it posted vital information, such as dinner time and place.
