Test Drive

8/10/2013

Fully loaded up this morning and will treat it as a test drive (ride) for my start next week. Riding an easy 50 miles to Morro Bay and back, and will take some pics, video, blog, run my GPS tracker and even listen to a little Pandora. Curious how my pda battery will hold up and if the solar charger I brought is necessary.

Met Liz and Jim outside of Cambria. They noticed my BikeTheCoast 13 jersey and asked about it. Liz had seen the article in The Cambrian about my ride. Really enjoyed riding with them to Cayucos. Their suggestion that I join a bike club to help keep me riding through the winter is a good one. I think the local Slabtown Rollers would be a good place to start. Maybe you'll see me in the Fall Liz & Jim! Thanks for the company.

On August 14, 2013, I'm flying to Vancouver, British Columbia and beginning a 29-day, 1,880-mile bike ride from Canada to Mexico.

On this page you'll find random ramblings before, during, and after my trek down the Pacific Coast. Prior to BikeTheCoast13, I'll blog about my prep, training, and thoughts from the road.
While visiting my blog, I hope you'll offer comments, suggests, and words of encouragement. I'm going to need all the help I can get!

For those who don't know me or my inspiration, please take a moment to check out the Why Now? tab to meet my daughter Lindsey and find out how I got here.

If this site helps or inspires you in any way, I hope you'll consider making a small donation to the cause.
