Tales of my attempt to cycle coast to coast
A Short Welcome
Hello and welcome to my blog. If you're new to reading blogs start from the bottom and work up to read posts in chronological order. The intention is to post every day of my trip across the US, starting Saturday 18th April. We'll see if tiredness and dodgy internet connections allow this. A more complete diary should be kept by the tour leader on the America by Bike home page which I've linked to. Whilst I'm out of the country we're having the loft converted. I still can't believe that Kate agreed to this timing. She'll hopefully be posting photos to show how it's going. If you're fascinated by other people's loft conversions, check out the link. I've also got a link to a FAQ section which provides some more background to the trip and to cycling.
America the Beautiful
O beautiful for spacious skies
For amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
Katharine Lee Bates, 1893
