Well, this is it !!

7/31/08 - Lancaster PA; Tomorrow starts the last run to the coast. 2 more days for 2 geezers 2 make it 2 the ocean. We will leave Lancaster tomorrow, Friday, at around 11 am for a 65 mile ride to spend the night at my daughters house in Norristown PA, then Saturday 8-2-08 leave early for the last 90 mile ride to Atlantic City NJ. That will be the 14th state to cross. 59 days from June 5th to August 2. Take away 7 days of our BTC Bicycle Tour of Colorado and 5 days off just because that's 47 days to cover roughly 4175 miles. But I am getting ahead of myself. We'll finish this off then I'll give you a report. Maybe you would like to take on an adventure like this yourself. I'd like to talk to you about it. Give me a call.

I road with RAAM riders for once - they took a picture of my bike - check it out at: http://stats.raceacrossamerica.org/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=7367

Then they let us cool our heals in their pool - check that out:

I'd like to thank all the blogs you sent to us, it's great to hear from you.

Smell the ocean?
