Why now?
Perhaps it is not the wisest choice to wait until retirement to pursue a goal I’ve had since high school to ride across America, but life rarely offers a perfect time for anything. There simply has not been the critical alignment of time, obligations, and resources to have made this possible at an earlier age. Besides, I knew I had to wait for Al Gore to invent the internet, the USA to launch a constellation of GPS satellites, and Steve Jobs to create the iPhone before I would have the resources necessary to make this possible! I’ve spent decades thinking about it, and years planning and following other blogs. Now is the time to ride! Encouraged by my successful shakedown ride across coastal Maine last Fall, I intend to begin this adventure in mid-May 2022.
