Eagle Scouts Begin Massive Bike Trek This Weekend

Earlier this year, we told you about the group of Eagle Scouts from Troop 165 in Fredericksburg, Va., who will be biking across the country this summer.

Well, after years of training and planning, the time is finally here: The group begins their epic journey this weekend.

This being 2014, there are lots of ways you can follow along.

Start by “liking” their Facebook page and signing up for notifications.

Then, follow them on Twitter.

Also, you can check out their daily recaps on their website.

And, you can follow them GPS-style right here.

We’ve been told that some of the guys graduated from high school just a week or so ago, and, after biking 4,000 miles, will go off to college just days after they get home.

Should be an interesting summer for those boys. Best of luck!
