I am sitting on our Delta flight on Wednesday morning, the app messaged that my bags are on board and the passengers are still filing in to their seats. I am more than ready to head West to Minneapolis and then home. I’ll sleep in my bed tonight! It feels incredible to have sleep and […]
Goooooood Mooooorning North Conway! I am excited for our last ride into Portland today. My routine is on automatic, alarm, tea, tidy up, check weather, Theragun once over to loosen up. I won’t have to do this tomorrow, I won’t have to mindlessly put on my kit, check tires, fill water, get out the door.
It is almost 5 am on a Sunday and I am siping tea preparing for the last century of this cross country ride. Thank you to Steve for being my ride along these two days through Vermont and New Hampshire but also for dinner last night. I t was great to see you and Katie.
Happy birthday to Jenna, my ride along for this glorious day that brought me to the Adirondacks. We earned this day through yesterday’s suffering. Sun, clear, blue skies and peak fall colors. Just.

Thank you to Colette for the ride along yesterday. She started my playlist of the day with Ventura Highway. Love that song. We rode 80 miles from Oberlin to Newbury, basically south of Cleveland through Cuyahoga national park. This is what I can say about Ohio. There are a lot of bees and horse farms
Thank you to my Friend Mila, from Olympia for my ride along today. She sent me inspiration and music and sing-along songs. So great! Today was mostly flat-ish and on trails. It was so nice to be out of traffic and among the trees and protected from the wind. We went through a number of
