Update:
Quote taken from Gary Eagen from another site.:
"I was heading into NYC to prep my brain, bike and body for the start
of the pseudo Cannonball=Type run, when I get a call from the
organizer, Brian Massey, saying he has to postpone the event. His
reasons were multiple, but none struck an agreeable chord with me. A
lot of people have put a lot of time, effort and money into this only
to get the carpet yanked at the last minute. I flew from Calgary to
Toronto yesterday, picked up the bike and went swimming & freezing
down toward Gotham.
I'm pissed.
Only thing to do, assuming I get an OK from those who need to give
their blessing, is stage a one-rider Gonzo tour of my own. I'm
figuring that out right now."
