A few weeks later, the men had another reason to celebrate.After more than three months in the ocean, they finally reached land."That first time reaching land was one of the best parts of the whole trip.We arrived on a cold day with a large group of people waiting to meet us.When we stepped off the boat, we almost fell down.We had been on the ocean for so long that we did not remember how to walk on land!"The men soon travelled to the United States, where they began the first on-land part of their trip.After a few weeks, Steve Smith decided that the trip was too difficult, and he returned home.But Jason continued on by himself.Using only a bicycle and his feet, Jason travelled thousands of kilometres across the United States.
