About Us

My photo
Based in Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati, we three are longtime single cycle riders. After early retirement, Karen and David bought a jumbo-sized Cannondale tandem. It's white (very), trimmed in red. We call it the Pillsbury Doughboy. We were joined by Bill, an old friend, on his 14-year old single Cannondale and made the call that started this adventure. He's supposedly retired but continues to find real work when he chooses.We planned to pedal self-supported across the U.S. in Spring 2011 from San Diego CA to St. Augustine FL. In beginning this adventure we agreed philosophically with Jean-Jacques Rousseau: "The person who has lived the most is not the one with the most years but the one with the richest experiences."

Just the two of us

Looks like we're pushing on. A return to Tempe would require riding the same (the only) route as yesterday. I will nevereverever be on that road again.
For the record, we travelled 80 miles and climbed 4,000 plus feet.
Tomorrow it's a push to Safford, another 80 miles, thru the San Carlos Apache Reservation. We should have quieter roadway.
