NCRT Board Member Finished Race Across America

Henry McKoy of Durham, our latest Board member, recently completed the 3005 mile Race Across America (RAAM). As a former track athlete but admittedly novice bike racer, Henry rode as part of a team sponsored by Durham Cares, a non-profit group supporting a variety of volunteer activities and charitable efforts in the Durham area. The team finished 4th of 12 teams in the 8 person Open category and were on the road for 6 days, 13 hours and 14 minutes. Henry survived the event fine but did have to replace his bike in Colorado. A small part of his adventure is shown in video 3 on the Durham Cares site. Over $104,000 has been donated to date and contributions are still coming in.
