Day 1: Cold!!

Cold! Left the house 39 degrees at 11 am. 61.8 miles in 4 hours. Lots of time to figure out life or go absolutely insane! Warmed up to a toasty 46 degrees and I couldn't believe how many skunks got smashed! Rode by at least 73 dead skunks. WTF Today was pretty rough but I loved every second! Gonna be a great trip!


My bike is awesome! I don't know if I'll think that by the end of all this but as of right now I love it! (I'm really not that strong, the bike is just real light!)


Dinner with my mom, cousin, and.....


COREY!!! Some of my favoritest people in the whole wide world! After a cold day of riding it was great to be with some of the best people, have a lot of laughs, and EAT!!!



only 1,640 or 1,860ish miles to go... LOL! Apparently too tired to be able to add correctly right now!
