Many Americans each year commit themselves to bike across the nation and prove that they can make it? Indeed, you have to totally be impressed with such folks, I mean my gosh, that is one heck of a long way isnt it? Yes, it sure is.

Well, I was so impressed with all those super-cyclists who have accomplished this that I too have committed myself to doing the same thing. Why? Well because I think I can, I think I can. You know like that little train that made it over the mountain.

Perhaps it is a test of will, proof of perseverance or simple a badge of my own strength of character? But either way, I am going for it? In fact here are some of my bike ride plans;

Well you can call me nuts, as most everyone I know has told me, yet in my younger days I have already ridden the length of California to raise money for Special Olympics and don’t worry I am planning a warm up from Port Angeles, WA to the Mexican Boarder along the CA coastline soon.

Just practice to get the bike tuned up and get into shape for the long-haul. Then most likely Coronado, CA where the Navy Seals train, watch them for an hour to get my last minute psyche ready and then go get it done across the bottom of CA, to AZ up Highway 60 to NM and thru TX, etc. I know all the areas well and well there you have it. They tell me I cannot do it in 3.5 weeks and they say I am crazy and it is impossible. Yep, that is what they always tell me, no matter what I am doing you see? Please consider all this in 2006.
