Three longboarders from the VA/NC area have hit the
pavement in a big way. They have embarked on a
cross-country trek to raise money for the East Coast
Round Wall Foundation in Washington, DC.
Adam Colton, Shayne Rivers, and Chris Gregory are
skating from Newport, Oregon to Springfield, Virginia.
Adam and Chris will be skating the entire time (hoping
to average around 50 miles per day) and Shayne will be
driving the support vehicle, relief skating, and
talking to girls.
 This event has been in the making for over a year. The
idea evolved from a three-month adventure into a
full-scale fundraising effort for the East Coast Round
Wall Foundation. This organization, based in
Washington, DC, is building a skatepark out of
recycled materials along with a learning and art
center for the children of Anacostia |
