Your neighbor down at the computer room.

Well done Rick. Fantastic effort. You have much to be proud of!!!!

Hey Rick I predicted you'd do it but I hadn't foreseen by how much you'd smash the old record. Unbelievable. What an inspirational achievement by you and your support crew. You all looked great in the local Omani papers at John O'Groats, and the sun shone on your crowning glory. The site doesn't tell us how much you raised but I imagine it was a princely sum. I'm proud of what you have done and proud to call you a friend. Take care big fella.

Conratulations, Rick and crew!! You're an inspiration to all of us armchair cheerleaders. Keep up the good work. What's next...crossing the English Channel in an arm-powered paddle boat?

Wow, what a great achievement, you done a good job, you are definately an inspiration, just an example of never give up you could make a difference no matter what. Way to go, tc :)

Outstanding! Mind the gas works! Cheers mate-

Dad I'm so proud of you! I wish I could've been there to offer support or if I wasn't such a wuss do it with you! I'm reading the email entries Uncle Mike sent me right now since we just got a new computer and have been setting it up these past few days. I love you and miss you so much and once again, I am very proud! Congrats!

Great job! Rick, you are a true inspiration... You are making a difference in the world, and in the lives of our soldiers and their families. God bless and best wishes.

Mike and Shirlie came by tonight to share the pictures from the trip. What an amazing journey! We are both so proud to call you all our friends!

WOW! You guys are awesome. What an incredible journey and accomplishment. Congratulations! We're sure that Mike will require some extra seat padding when he returns to America. :) Congrats again!!

Excellent achievement! If only our politicians had this much courage, determination and drive!

Congradulations. I was on the road at the same time going for a world record in a power chair for the RBl but only raised just over £500. We, my team of 7, did it in 26 days. I await to find out if we too have set a world record..

What a wonderful achievement. Congratulations. You are an inspriation to others. God Bless you

WAY TO GO RICK!!! YOU DID IT!!! Everyone at TAPS sends you warm congratulations and our sincere thanks for your dedication to our servicemembers and their families and to our organization! WHAT A RIDE! WHAT AN ACCOMPLISHMENT! WHAT AN AWESOME DISPLAY OF COURAGE, DEDICATION AND INSPIRATION!

Well done Rick and the support team! A tremendous effort.

Congratulations Rick on your fabulous finish and world record! I can't wait to read your final blog entry! You are amazing!

Bravo - you are unstoppable - but I never had any doubts that you wouldn't do it - your determination is beomcing legendary! well done again

Rick and the Team: What Pride we have in all of you for the committment and energy you expended in raising Funds for our colleques in the Military. Your example of caring is and remains an inspiration to all of us. I am most grateful that you felt the presence of a Royal Marine on your final 120-mile stretch was motivating and uplifting. Personally, I think it was the Mars Bars and the prospect of the bottle of Champagne! We thoroughly enjoyed the "Wet" in the Seview Hotel, John O'Groats. See you in D.C. 2010

Well done. You are a hero too. Was thinking of you through all that bad weather after Carlisle. Hope you didn't get that Tubigrip wet!! From the lady from Boots.

Well done you guys. I can't believe you got the world record so easily. You are a total inspiration to everyone. xx

WELL DONE...TRUE GRIT GOURAGE AND DETERMINATION. Congratulations to you and all your team. all the best to you in all your future ventures.

Congratulations Rick, you are a hero to the heart. Your ambition and attitude is something to share with all injured service women and men. You are unstoppable. I have followed your injury and progress through my wonderful trainer and friend here in NYC. She is a great supporter of yours. Continue your great faith in positive survival and just do it attitude. You are a true hero. Lots of Luck on your venture.

Wow!!!! Never doubted either one of you for a minute. I am glad Rick's wheelchair wasn't stolen..., Come home safely... You are AWESOME! See you soon.

Never doubted you all for a moment! Your determination was an inspiration and your sucess is an affirmation. Congrats to you, your families and the sevice men and women you support.

Before I passed you at Golspie on the A9 - I thought 'what's the hold-up?' Then I was flagged past by the ambulance, and suddenly realised what it was all about. Many many thanks. Jamie Stone - MSP for Caithness, Sutherland & Easter Ross

Thank you for such a great example you set for all of us. My husband Lawrence was a great friend of Nabs during his tour in Bahrain. I don't know if you ever met...but we lost him in 2004 and my kids and I have been the recipients of love and support offered by TAPS. Thanks for supporting them and us!

Hi and good luck to you all. Michael, you didn't have to go to such extreme lengths to avoid spending time with the in-laws ! Hope to spend more time with you the next time you come to Scotland.

We were delighted to catch up with you all in Kendal this morning and stay with you as you headed for Shap. It was a privilege to meet you and all good wishes for the remainder of the journey. We'll be thinking of you. Suzie & Richard Reynolds

Can you give time of arrival in Carlisle please, Support from Scots Guards on it`s way.

We are rooting for you from the US. I have been Twittering and Facebooking your endeavors and in turn, I am touched that my friends Facebook statuses are also sharing your journey with their family and friends. The word is getting out there of your endeavors. We are praying and thinking of you every day for a safe journey. Rick you are an inspiration in our family and now the rest of the world can see what we have always known. Thank you for the team that is supporting my brother, Rick..without you, this would not be possible. Much love, much love to all of you.

a bit late in the day but what time do you leave wigan. would like to show my support as I live on the route by the a6 just outside Wigan, Adlington.

We saw you heading onto Bodmin Moor on Friday afternoon as we left Cornwall heading home to Lancashire. So admired your effort and determination and my 8 year old son was particularly impressed, we will be watching out for you tomorrow as you head up the A6!! Well done!

My husband/a soldier gets annoyed that the fallen are forgotten and yesterdays news.They won't be forgotten with people like you,who have their own personal battle but selflessly think of others.God bless you and good luck to you.Liz an army wife of 20years.

To my brothers, I love you both and we are very proud you! Good luck! You are an inspiration to our family and to the cause!

Just spotted the Ride for Remembrance crew on the A38 between Kidderminster and Wolverhampton. My wife pulled over and I was intrigued about what was happening. I spoke to a great bunch of guys and they explained the world record attempt. My deep admiration goes out to Rick and all his support crew. I only had a few short minutes with them but realised what a great achievement they are making and already have made. I'm a big outdoor and biking fan and realise the physical effort made in such an epic attempt. Good luck to you all. My pledge will be made...
