Delayed Blog

I didn’t manage to get my Thursday blog written and scheduled on my day off. I had a pretty big upkeep todo list. So Thursday’s post is delayed to at least this weekend when I reach Lewiston, ID and take another day off. If not, you can expect another blog on Tuesday. Here’s some picsContinue reading “Delayed Blog”

Solo in Saint Louis

If I haven’t mentioned before, I bought a tracking device called Tracki solely to put my parents minds at ease, so they could know where I was when I didn’t have cell service to text them. While biking I realized pretty quickly that the device didn’t work as I intended. First of all it usedContinue reading “Solo in Saint Louis”

Final Preparations Before Day 1

First off, my apologies for the delay in my blog for last week. As some of you may know, I struck out on my Lewis and Clark Trail bike trip on Sunday, May 9, 2021. The week leading up to my departure was a hectic race to get everything done before “go time.” I gotContinue reading “Final Preparations Before Day 1”

A Trial Run

A few weeks ago I went to Vermont to test out my camping equipment for the first time. I’ve watched the movie Wild and I have no desire to find out my stove won’t work when there’s nothing I can do about it. I have a bit more freedom to solve a problem like thatContinue reading “A Trial Run”

The Chaos Before the Storm

This week’s blog will be brief (my regrets that it is also a few days late). This past week I’ve been deep in preparation mode. I finished moving out of my apartment in preparation for this trip. That paired with keeping up with training and suddenly switching from launching a Kickstarter project to a GoFundMeContinue reading “The Chaos Before the Storm”

No Shirts, No Shoes, No Service

I love my rides. I even enjoy the challenges that go with biking long distances. I might complain —a lot (I like doing that too), but one of my favorite things about cycling is the independence that comes with it. I like that I’m capable of solving my own problems. I refuse to be aContinue reading “No Shirts, No Shoes, No Service”

Sick of Hearing My Own Voice

“Well, you know what they say about the best laid plans…” My plan for this week was to transition from training posts to good old history nerd content. Yes, I enjoy riding my bike, but that’s not the primary reason I plan on biking the Lewis and Clark Trail this summer. I might like theContinue reading “Sick of Hearing My Own Voice”

Useless When Wet

I’ve spent most of the last week running around like a mad woman, trying (and succeeding!) to keep up with my training regime while putting together a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. Thus, I’ll keep today’s post brief. My every moment has been so crammed full of preparation that the ride I wrote about last weekContinue reading “Useless When Wet”
