Cycling Across the USA
Biking alone across the United States to raise awareness among young people about breast cancer, adventurer and entrepreneur Ness Knight is on a 2,000-mile journey from the Gateway Arch in Missouri to the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, experiencing the prairie, rivers and mountains from an up close eye-level perspective. But it is the people she meets along the way --- an Oklahoma state trooper asking for her business card, a cowboy offering the warmth of morning coffee, and strangers sharing their Thanksgiving with her --- that is giving Ness Knight the orbital perspective: We are all connected. We are all family.

What an opportunity! We shouldn't underestimate the help people are willing to offer and the good we can accomplish together.
