OHIO
The home state of astronauts Neil Armstrong and John Glenn, Ohio is the ninth state for Craig to ride through towards the RAAM finish line.
With half the US population located within 500 miles of Columbus Ohio, Craig's challenge changes dramatically from weather to traffic - he and his support crew will need to stay on alert while maintaining race speed through congested traffic.
Detours aren't an option, as RAAM riders are monitored by GPS and tracked along the same route.
