Journal of my bicycle ride across the country from Seattle to Boston with "Cycle America" in 2007.
Background
Summer 2007 I rode my bicycle from Seattle to Boston a distance of 4200 miles in 63 days. This ride had been a lifelong dream of mine. I came within a few days of doing a self supported XC trip in 2005 with my son Ryan and his friend Jesse but I got sick and could not make the trip. That was a big disappointment to me. Ryan and Jesse got as far as the middle of Montana before deciding to stop riding. Ryan chronicled their ride here: Ryan & Jesse's Ride Since none of my friends were crazy enough to ride the whole distance with me this year and I wanted some company I selected to join a ride planned and catered by Cycle America. I rode the Pacific Coast Coast Ride from Bellingham WA to San Francisco, CA in 2003 with Cycle America and had a great experience. As it turned out my older son Robert and my friend Wallace joined me for week 2 of the trip and Naomi rode week 4 while my younger son Ryan rode with me the final week of the trip.
