Day 3 found the riders braving brutally scorching temperatures in Arizona.

I don’t know about you, but I’m excited for all the action this year’s race is going to bring. From teams made up of over-60 men and women, to a team of diabetics, to brave bicycling individuals from all over the world, this years RAAM promises to be awesome!
