"People like Shawn Anderson show us that when we push beyond what we think our limitations may be -- we can inspire others to do the same. Shawn's solo ride across the country, and the Extra Mile America Tour, invites every American to find the 'Extra Mile" inside, and bring that spirit forth in his or her own community -- proving that one person really can make a difference."
           - Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey, U.S. House of Representatives.

 

Shawn Anderson is hoping to inspire others to go the extra-mile in their own lives. Pedaling a bike solo across America and stopping at pre-organized events in 21 cities along the route, Shawn will be reminding people that success knocks at our door much more quickly when we persevere through tough times... and go the extra mile.

"When we go the extra-mile, possibility opens up. Whether it's throwing that extra resume in the mail, thinking outside the box in order to make ourselves more attractive as job candidates, or doing something extra for a client to solidify business...now is the time to truly renew our commitment to do more than is expected."
