Laguna Beach resident Max Isles, 44, and friend Ryan O’Malley, 33, returned home safely on schedule last Saturday, Sept. 6, without any accidents other than a tire puncture after a five-day journey covering 536 miles.

Supporters have contributed almost $6,000 so far toward their quest to raise research money for the Alzheimer’s Association. Both friends have relatives who suffer from the debilitating disease.

They spent 7.5 hours in the saddle each day to travel from San Francisco to Laguna Beach in less than a week. Their phone app estimates the two burned 25,000 calories and climbed 20,000 feet.
