A Dyersville man is back in Iowa after 4,600-mile trek through 48 states.
Tom "EZ" Goen describes the four-month excursioin on a custom-made Harley Davidson as a "once in a lifetime" opportunity.
Dubuque's Telegraph Herald reports that Goen arrived back in Iowa Sunday afternoon to the cheers of supporters at the Field of Dreams near Dyersville.
The trek was meant to to raise awareness of Americans living with disabilities. One objective was to let others know that their disabilities can be treated.
Goen says he "got to see a lot of beautiful places, beautiful people" on the tour.
