Like Jack Kerouac...but sober. And on wheels.

So this is my Bike the US blog.
For those of you who are just jumping in now, I'm taking part in a program called BIKE THE US FOR MS! Yee haw! I'll be biking 4,295 miles from Bar Harbor, Maine to Seattle, WA to get, get, get that MONEY for MS research. I am a noble person.
Yes. I am creating it now, because my Dad suggested that I did. So here it is. Anyway, I haven't left yet, but there are a lot of logistics to get figured out:

  • How to get to Maine?!
    • How to get bicycle to Maine?!
  • WHERE AM I GOING TO GET 4,295 DOLLARS?!
  • Will there be plugs where we're going?
  • Am I going to be cold?
  • 4,295 miles?!
So far family and friends have been great. I'm at 57% of my 1$ per mile goal. That's a lotta moolah! I have lined up two local fundraisers with my friend and fellow BUS4MS cyclist, Savannah! She is great. Anyway, the fundraisers will be at Nuberri Frozen Yogurt (April 10th-16th) and Mr. Roboto's (April 27th). I'm hoping to get a big number of people into both events. 


Well. It's late and I should be sleeping. I will dream of bicycles. 
Goodnight!
