If you've read Rick's blogspot, BicycleNaked.blogspot.com, you have the lowdown on the group that's decided to make this trek and their backgrounds and cycling credentials.
I'd like to add a little more to the information about Gloria & Ivan, and Sonny, specifically their AGES!! Ivan will be 73 when our trip begins, Gloria 71, and Sonny 80!!! Rick and I will be 59 and 56 respectively, and I will be the only one of our entourage who will celebrate a birthday during the trip - I'll turn 57 on October 4.
I am calling this a "magic" bike ride across America, because, well, it will be magic if we make it!!!! Also, because all of us "amigos" know each other from the Magic Circle, our little community in the long-term visitor area of La Posa South in Quartzsite, Arizona.
So are we nuts?? Some would say YES!!! Heck, we all would say yes. But being nuts can be really entertaining....
So stay tuned. Between now and when our ride commences, which is now set for Saturday, September 22, I will be posting how Rick's and my training is going.
