New Adventure

So there is a new adventure on the horizon. There I go, again. It won't happen for a year, but there is lots of prep involved.

Annelle, for her 65th birthday, wants to ride the East Coast Greenway trail from Bar Harbor to Key West. Something like 2600 miles. And while we used to ride all the time, we haven't done much lately, nor have we attempted anything on this scale. 2-3 months. Planning will include route maps and figuring out how we are going to "camp" each night. NO, it will not be in a tent. I will not mess with packing up soaking wet stuff in the morning and setting it back up in the evening, after riding 50 miles. No way.

We have time to figure it out. We started training today (!) and have some work there too. Need to find enough easy trails or flat roads to start, which isn't easy up here in the mountains.  I'm excited to be getting back on the bike!
