ST. AUGUSTINE BEACH, Fla. -- Three graduates from Palm Beach Atlantic University are getting some much needed rest Thursday night after a grueling ride of their lives.

After three months of training and 45 days of cycling over 3,000 miles, Ryan, Caleb and Jonathan finally arrived at St. Augustine Beach.

They biked across the United States from San Siego, Calif. to St. Augustine, Fla.

They are cycling to raise awareness and money for a medical clinic being set up in Durban, South Africa. Ryan will travel there for a six month mission trip.

Parents arrived to support and congratulate them. They say they have memories that will last a lifetime.

They have raised around $12,000, but were looking to raise $25,000.
