Bicycle Across The U.S.

When I was in grade school I often rode to a bike shop where “the fast guys” hung out and gathered for afternoon rides in the summer. I had a sweet little Italian custom frame with Zeus components and 26” sew-ups. The older guys at the shop were my heroes and they all had done at least one trans-US ride. A group of these cycle racing hippies did the ride every summer.

In the 70’s it was a cool thing to do. Today it seems that only “eccentrics” ride across the USA on bicycles.

I want to pedal across the country, coast to coast, just like my heroes did!

I have wanted to cycle across the US for many, many years. I have all of the maps. I have my route planned. I have all of the needed equipment. I have the dersire.

What I don’t have is the TIME! Some day I will have the 60 to 90 days to complete this goal. I want to see the whole country from the seat of my bike.
