Under a Triumphant Sky: A Bike Across America Story

Under a Triumphant Sky is more than a bicycle narrative. It is a human story about facing your fears and overcoming adversity - all for the pursuit of a lifelong dream. Steve Garufi pedaled solo across America for forty-five days from Del Mar, California to Jekyll Island, Georgia.

A thief stole his bike in Phoenix. A mechanical failure in the desert led to an angry meltdown. There were chasing dogs, flat tires, run-ins with semi-trucks, exhaustion and loneliness. Readers will encounter colorful characters, beautiful scenery, treacherous roads and Steve himself - a mental health therapist who searches for the deeper meanings of our shared human experience.

You'll be with him in joy, anger, fear, doubt, worry and more than a few eruptions in laughter. With a raw faith in God (Jesus), his steely determination to honor an inner compass guides him to persist until he embraces his final moment of triumph.
