Yesterday was an interesting day. Rode 99.5 miles from Clarkston, Washington (new state!!) to Walla Walla. Thank god I got a new wheel as the terrain was desolate and services far and few between. My rear wheel appeared to be out of true for the two previous days. I took it to a bike shop... Continue Reading →
I am currently on day two of a rest period in Missoula, Montana. This is because Monday morning when we woke up freezing, we decided that it may be a good idea to push 120+ miles into the biggest city we've seen in quite some time. There was an open ended warm showers host that... Continue Reading →
Yesterday contained a string of small blunders further limiting my ability to post.

I have 11 days to get to Kansas City for a 7:15 PM CDT Royals game on June 30. July 2, there is a Dirty Heads concert the Little Lady and I will be attending and more than likely some fireworks on July 4. According to Google Maps, I have roughly 600 miles to go... Continue Reading →
With two weeks off and less than two weeks to knock out a Tennessee to Kansas City (here I come) trip, I will need to get back into fighting shape. Recreating what I did in my last two days of riding will be a feat unto itself. Here is a taste of the last day's... Continue Reading →
