THE TOTAL AMOUNT
The total amount now is 2,365. This was hand delivered to the MS Society an hour before I got on a plane. The money is safe in their hands. Thanks to everyone who donated and made this event a success. "Wait till you see what I do tomorrow..." --- Jimmy Pelletier 100% skateboarder

HELLO, EVERYONE.
WE ARE PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THAT THE JOURNEY HAS BEEN COMPLETED. WE HAD A LATE START AT ABOUT 1:30PM AND FINALLY LANDED AT 8:30PM. IT TOOK 7 HOURS AND THE RAIN HELD OFF ALL DAY WHICH WAS GREAT. A MAJOR WIPE OUT FROM A ROCK ON THE PATH TOOK JIMMY OUT WHILE HE WAS GOING ABOUT 20MPH DOWN A HILL . HE RECOVERED IN 10 MINUTES AND WAS BACK IN ROUTE. THE HIGHLIGHT WAS THAT SOME OF THE MS CREW LEFT AN ENVELOPE AT THE LANDING SITE FOR JIMMY. INSIDE WAS A MEDAL WITH A RED RIBBON NECKLACE. WHAT AN INCREDIBLE GIFT FOR SUCH A GREAT CAUSE. WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK ESPECIALLY,KEIR JOHNSON, FOR SHOOTING 200 PHOTOS AND 30 MINUTES OF FOOTAGE. THIS WILL ALL BE AVAILABLE ON THIS SITE VERY SOON FOR ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE PLEDGED MONEY TO SEE THAT THE JOURNEY WAS COMPLETED.AND MUCH THANKS TO CHRIS HALL FOR RIDING THE PACER BIKE WITH US FOR SECURITY AND FOR AWARENESS TO THE CAUSE BY WEARING THE SHIRTS WE MADE.MUCH THANKS, AS WELL, TO ADRIAN TYLER FOR SHOOTING EXTRA FOOTAGE AFTER THE LANDING AND SHOWING HER SUPPORT.
