What if you are in the area and pass the thing? Like if I were camping/riding in East Texas so I pass it to someone there. It is a long drive, I can't imagine riding. But I am in - Central Texas.
I also read about some guys who biked across America and planted a little tree at stops along the way. Good for the environment! I think we all have our causes, so finding one to unite us might be a little hard.

I wouldn't have any problem with that. Also, I could see driving in any number of directions from Atlanta, stopping some set distance from the pass-off and then biking the rest of the way.
After early to mid-December, I could help coordinate its journey through the US (I'm just swamped with work and family obligations right now). Perhaps by then, it would have started its way around the Southern Hemisphere.
I like the idea of a charitible cause. I like the idea of "it" making its way back to the origination point.
We can do it as a "Pick your charity", and then when we report, we can say, "I did 65 miles from Rhode Island to Connecticut for Diabetes, and I met up with _________ (see picture...), we had a quick lunch, chatted, and then she took off with IT for a 45 mile jaunt for her charity...."
I can do five more miles.
p.s. I started a thread in the Northeast section to help gather those of us in the Northeast. Add your name, location, miles willing to ride, best routes you can utilize, and whether or not you are willing to travel (drive) to get to a riding point.
I can do five more miles.
