Day 1 - "as it happened"!

April 9, 2001 – Delbert Richardson began his cross-country recumbent tricycle trip as planned, leaving from a playground in Seattle. Though rain was forecasted, the wet weather held off for a brief period—long enough for him to get started on dry pavement!

Delbert also wore an MS Awareness Ribbon, designed by fellow Champion, Linda Chance.

Delbert did a live TV interview with the Seattle FOX station.

Before he left, Delbert did a live TV interview with the Seattle FOX station. Local camera crews from all 4 networks—ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX filmed him pedaling off into the East, as a crowd of family members, fellow bikers and well-wishers from the Seattle chapter of the National MS Society waved good bye.

Time to get going...

He's off!
