Recently we caught up with Chris Figureida, who is cycling across the US to raise awareness about childhood obesity and heart disease.  About one month into his jorney, Chris found himself in the mythical "middle of nowhere."

I finally found the "middle of nowhere" and it was everything that I expected - ugly brown and dried out weeds, stretching for as far as my eye could see. Interesting, in this land of nothing. I happen to come up on two other people. And who else would be found wondering through this part of the world, but other touring cyclist. These two guys were from New York. And very close to reaching Portland. Like every other touring cyclist, they were very impressed with my lightweight set up and minimal gear.

Cane Creek is proud to sponsor Chris on his inspiring journey. Accompanying him are Cane Creek SC-1 headset and Thudbuster ST suspension seatpost .
