For years I have dreamed of riding my bike across America and decided, "If not now, when?" On April 24th I will depart from CA and arrive in MA on May 26th. In 33 days I will ride 3,457 miles, averaging 115 miles per day. This will be a challenging ride, and I am motivated by the courage demonstrated by Special Olympic athletes. I am soliciting donations to support them. Click on my "Donate to Special Olympics" link and make a donation today! Please.

Day 8, Rest Day, Albuquerque, NM
Spent the day doing laundry, cleaning/tuning up bike, reading, making phone calls and repacking bags. Went for a 20 mile bike ride just to keep my legs loose and then took a nap. Went out to dinner with 10 other guys and had a great pasta dinner. In bed at 9 pm to get ready to push on. Enjoyed the time off. Next day off will be in 12 days.
