Because Relay For Life, the very reason Tour de States happened, is tonight...and I'm there.  I traveled all the way from Suwanee, GA (my current place of residence) to bring the first full trailer of the documentary to be shown to all in attendance...<br /><br />(TRAILER AFTER THE JUMP)]]> <a href="/cutenews/rss.php?subaction=showfull&amp;id=1269724472&amp;archive=&amp;start_from=&amp;ucat=1&amp;"><a href="http://www.tourdestates.com/index.php?subaction=showfull&amp;id=1269724472">Read the rest...</a></a>

<description><![CDATA[Hey everyone!  It has been too long, hasn't it?<br /><br />Well I apologize for the lack of updates over the past few months.  It is my last semester here at UF and I've been concentrating on trying to graduate, as well as filming a TV show (Check it out: <a href="http://www.oppiesfriendgene.com">Oppie's Friend, Gene</a>), as well as being heavily involved in Theatre Strike Force. <br /><br />But enough excuses, right?  I've got a crap-load of video, that I'm slowly uploading to my computer.  To give a little teaser, I uploaded a little clip from the handy-cam.  I will be working hard-core over this next year on the documentary, all-the-while uploading snippets of video to the website...so be sure to check back from time to time!<br /><br />Anyway, here's a clip of the aftermath of one of Nick's hard falls... <br /><object width="601" height="338"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=8164098&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=00ADEF&fullscreen=1" /><embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=8164098&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=00ADEF&fullscreen=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="601" height="338"></embed></object><p><a href="http://vimeo.com/8164098">Tour de States- Nick Fall-eux</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user1997716">Tour de States</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>]]> <!-- no full story-->

We had been through most of Texas, experiencing little problems when it came to food and gas.
