You are awesome!!! We're so inspired we wanted to name our baby after you ... but it's a girl so we'll use the "M" in Mike instead. Keep up the good fight - strong & true to your own plan.
Your friends,

Love to see how great you look in the early running. Ride your own race. We are all thinking of you here in Des Moines. Been on the phone with Dwight already as you and your crew are in our thoughts. Stay tough and balanced.

Thanks Jim Woodman for all of the updates, they are great!
Mike-I slept with the computer last night so I could check your progress every time I woke up (which is quite frequently, since I am old and have to pee alot). Keep it up, Mike. Your "Home" team is watching and cheering.

Mike was about 25 miles from the Mississippi river the first time I met him. He was standing next to his support car, not really doing anything -- the crew were just standing there also.
The first thing I said as I approached Mike was "get back on the bike"........
Jim Amelung says "Hey Mike, it's you, the bike, and the clock, stay focused.......
You're doing a terrific job Mike- keep it up!
Enjoy the scenery ,the ride and keep having fun.
Love, Mom

Dear Mike,
Well, of course, my previous, poetic message was lost to the friggin vapors,Web-stchuff and all that crapola. It was a very poetic, inspirational message about deer, cats, mice, traffic signs, mailboxes; I guess the point was: every creature on God's green Earth is pulling for you ! When Mailboxes talk, and cats whisper, they're saying : Go, Mike, go! God loves you best! "
Your're the One !
Love Lyndah and critters
Hi mike,
I think your doing great! I want you to know that if y ou win or lose everyone here will just be excited you made it. We all got worried when y ou were in the mohave, but I knew you'd make it, your really brave.
