The Czech group that was driving three-wheeled Velorex vehicles on Route 66 rolled into Santa Monica on Wednesday, reports the New York Times’ Wheels blog.
The group, which had a host of Dutch and American sponsors, left from the Art Institute in Chicago on September 27 and arrived in California on Wednesday. Along the way, the riders seem to have encountered the usual bits of road-trip Americana: the world’s largest rocking chair, a teepee motel and a suspect meal at Taco Bell. A diary of the tour, which also raised funds for three different charities, is here.
