Race Across America
Race Across America (RAAM) is without any doubt one of the toughest sports-events in the world. The race was designed to be the ultimate challenge for the human body and mind.
And tough it is!
In RAAM it is a matter of crossing the American continent from Oceanside north of San Diego on the West Coast to Annapolis south east of Washington D.C. on the East Coast. On a bike. RAAM is the ultimate time trial and the ultimate endurance test. 5000 km across the USA. Ambition: 6½ days and nights - nonstop!
The triple winner of the Tour de France Greg Lemond has said about RAAM:
“It is one of the toughest events in the world; and the toughest cycle race in the world. It is an immense challenge of the human mind.”
