    Nick! That was awesome! I’m glad you are safe… man that was one heck of a graceful landing! I can’t wait to share that with our youth group. Peace be with you!

    HAHAHA You’re a wildman Nick! That was the slowest…albeit most acrobatic bike-wreck on a swinging bridge I’ve ever seen. I’m going to send you a helmet or money to buy one. I owe you that much just for the laughs. Keep up the good work, brother.

    Thanks for all the posts! To answer a question that a lot of people have asked: no, that was not a staged fall. That was 100% real, and we can give credit to our good friend Brainard for not telling us to go one at a time. Of course, had he told us, then the video would not be any good.

    Thanks for following the trip, and we will be sure to be “safe” as the trip comes to an end.
