Ushuaia!

It's in the books! 315 days after leaving our home in Portland, we've made it to the end of the world in Ushuaia, Argentina. There isn't any more road to keep heading South!

After weeks of nasty weather, the cycling gods smiled on our final day on the road. We had a bluebird day climbing over the Garibaldi Pass, through the southernmost peaks of the Andes. Amazing is an understatement. We've never had a happier, more beautiful day on our bikes. We were even joined by some members of the local cycling club for the last stretch. Not a bad way to finish one hell of a journey.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts (and our spent arms and legs) to everyone who has supported us along the way. We don't have the space and are too exhausted to name you all now, but we truly couldn't have done this without you.


Now it's time to stuff our faces and celebrate like we don't have to ride our bikes tomorrow. Cheers!

Congratulations Seth and Kelly! I am a fellow quadriplegic and you both are a tremendous inspiration. After a well-deserved rest, what is next? The Long Road North from Portland to the Arctic ocean?

You two are an inspiration. I wish there were more words, but it's really quite ineffable. I don't even know you, but I love you. Thoroughly enjoyed reading every word and admiring every picture. Beastly. Compassionate. Uber-humans. Wanderlusters. Just some inadequate words that describe the tip of the iceberg, from the end of the earth, the depths and strength of your humanity.
