I watched the live ABC tv news coverage of the event today from just before 2pm EDT to 4pm EDT.
The first showed it from a city in Mexico.
About five minutes later they had coverage from DEL RIO, TEXAS.
The ABC News team there in Del Rio, Texas spoke live on the air with a very fit, retired couple WHO HAD RIDDEN THEIR BICYCLES FROM SAN DIEGO to DEL RIO to see the Eclipse.
THEY WERE ASKED WHEN THEY LEFT SAN DIEGO, they said That They Left San Diego a month ago.
Sorry, I do not remember their names. Someone who dvr 'd the live ABC Broadcast may be able to recognize their names and then give them the proper congrats on making such a cool journey.
My hat is off to them in a fitting salute for making such a cool bicycle journey!!!
