9 Days and Counting!!!!

Howdy folks,
We leave for Vancouver, BC in 6 days, and on the 18th, w e r i d e .

I am running out the door right now to go on a training right on the miserably hot, flat, straight roads of the Florida coast (back home). The goal today: ride a bunch, and find sponsors for food along the way for our trip.

We are currently very close to the halfway point for our fundraising: $9,400!!!

A very exciting place to be as we head into the actual ride. Construction of the retaining wall in Chacaya is underway, the wheels are all in motion (ha!). We still have a long way to go, both in terms of distance and fundraising, so any ideas for support on this project are of course still welcomed.

As I've said before, the route and itinerary for our trip is available on our website, please peruse it and see if you think we're crazy. The gear is acculumated, the bikes are ready, our bodies are getting trained up for the century-a-day pace we will try to maintain. More updates soon!

Love,
E
