Subject: Normandy Challenge presented by UnitedHealthcare
The ride of a lifetime for any fan of history and what happened on D-Day, June 6, 1944. The trip will feature Medal of Honor recipient Walt Ehlers* and Distinquished Service Cros Bob Slaughter*, who both fought on D-day and received their awards due to their actions in Normandy, as our official tour guides. They will be there to tell the group first hand experiences as we visit places like Utah and Omaha beaches, Pointe du Hoc, Carentan, LeFiere, Brecourt Manor, Goville, and Caen.
After riding for 5 day thru the D-Day battlefields, the ride will join Stage 6 of the Tour de France in the finish town of Liseux. if you are lucky, you might catch a glimpse of HTC spinter Mark Cavendish as he sprints for the finish.
