  1. Hi there - we're looking for riders to support our coast to coast
    journey.

    On September 14, 2007, Team H2V starts riding from Halifax to
    Vancouver - non-stop - and we're going to do it in just 9 days.

    Why? To engage in an epic test of the human spirit and raise
    $1,000,000 for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF).

    I'm writing to ask for your help. To help us spread the word and get
    elite riders out on the road across Canada. While our 5 riders will
    have support vehicles, they need the kind of moral, mental and
    physical encouragement you can only get from riding with a group.
    We're looking to Canada's cycling elite to join and support Team H2V
    along our 6,000 km trans-Canada route. Please help us push the pace,
    raise awareness for JDRF and meet our $1,000,000 goal.

    What's in it for you, your club and/or your store?
    - coast to coast media coverage
    - raising the profile for cycling across the country
    - building awareness and interest with other cycling associations and
    clubs
    - helping a worthwhile cause
    - helping fellow cyclists do something epic

    To find out more and meet our riders, please visit our website at
    http://www.teamH2V.com
    Watch the videos here: http://www.h2vpushthepace.com/index.php?content=video
    All of the videos are great, but the Promise, Push and the CTV
    Broadcast, are my personal favorites.

    Detailed route maps and schedule will be posted soon.
    I can email additional info to you to if you would like.

    667 KM per day, you're on motorcycles, small airplanes?

  3. I checked their website and they are riding 24 hours per day, taking 3 hour
    shifts, one rider at a time.. So divide 667 km/day by 24 hours and you get
    somewhere around 27.8 km/hr. (That translates into somewhere around 17mph
    for those of us not gifted with an innate understanding of metric speeds).
    Somewhat like a RAAM team.

  4. As of tonight, I have the detailed City by City schedule, including
    duration between and approximate pass through times.
    Let me know if you're interested in seeing it.
