We’ve returned from our roundtrip journey across the country and the one regret we have is not being able to spend more time in each location. The people, attractions and natural wonders were absolutely incredible, but the cast and crew, much to our chagrin, were under a tremendous amount of pressure to push on each day before we would otherwise be ready. We stayed as long as we absolutely could to soak up the atmosphere and try to capture the essences of all these incredible places, amd the realities of working with a limited budget, and in turn time were daunting. 7029 miles in 24 days is quite a bit to accomplish. The hosts held up and drove every single mile through sore muscles, wind, rain, and scorching temperatures. Here are our mileage stats for the trip: Day Date From To Running Milage Day’s Miles Traveled 1 30-Jun Ridgewood NJ Long Beach Island NJ 134 134 2 1-Jul Long Beach Island NJ Daleville, VA 609 472.5 3 2-Jul Daleville, VA Nashville, TN 1012 403.1 4 3-Jul Nashville, TN Louisville, KY 1208 194.4 5 4-Jul Louisville, KY Bourbon, Mo 1612 404.1 6 5-Jul Bourbon, Mo Catoosa, OK 1901 289 7 6-Jul Catoosa, OK Tucumcari, NM 2394 493.2 8 7-Jul Tucumcari, NM Flagstaff AZ 2896 501.4 9 8-Jul Flagstaff AZ Needles, Ca 3264 368.5 10 9-Jul Needles, Ca Bakersfeild Ca 3545 280.1 11 10-Jul Bakersfeild Ca San Jose, CA 3794 249.1 12 11-Jul San Jose, CA Millbrae, Ca 3863 54.6 13 12-Jul Millbrae, Ca San Francisco 4096 15 14 13-Jul San Francisco Lake Tahoe 4417 232.9 15 14-Jul Lake Tahoe Elko,...

We are still in pre-production. The team has been coming together and we have a preliminary shooting schedule. We are reaching out to you for tips or leads for the ‘roadblocks’ we are encountering during this time. We are still on the hunt for a radio / ifb / rts solution for driving sequences. The challenge we face is to capture audio inside a helmet from a remote (moving) location. We are also still trying to find a good deal on a truck or SUV for crew. If you have a contact at a tourist attraction, small business or mysterious location along the map, please let us know if they are interested in being featured on the show. Donations in the form of time, goods or funds are greatly welcome....
