Getting ready to leave...

I'll be leaving for my two week tour here this Saturday the 24th. The plans are to leave from SE PA and head south. We may end up doing something like this loop, or we may change it completely. We won't really know until we start riding.



we've talked about going to Savannah and back as well. Who knows.

That said, I guess I just thought I'd let you all here know we'll be out and around, and if anyone would be nice enough to offer a back yard to sleep in we'd be grateful. We'll be fully loaded, and camping as much as possible. If you don't have a yard to offer, we always like to meet up with like minded individuals anyway even just to say hi.

When I say we, I mean myself and my father. We'll both be riding recumbents for this trip.

Also, I'll be updating my blog as much as possible with pics and info during our trip. That can be found here:

I guess that's it for now. See ya soon!

Had a 130 mile day today. That might be a new record. Lots more days left in the tour so maybe we'll better that yet. Did a small post on blog listed above, but more pics and info when I can make it to a computer
