This blog site documents my solo cross country bicycle adventure that goes from San Diego California to St. Augustine Florida - 3,200 miles. The trip is planned from November 21st until January 5th. The goal is to ride 80 miles per day for 40 days with 2 days of transport and 2 days for rest or bad weather. Gonna be a major challenge and a trip to remember!

Uh oh...it seems David may have unleashed the secret weapon of the burrito!
You know, after reading all the stuff you've been eating on this ride your gastro system is gonna be in need of some serious repair. Sounds like a trip to MacGregor Ale House to me.
Steve-I am following your journey daily. Lots of fun. Your intestinal fortitude is as amazing as your bike riding skills. Roll on. Be safe.

Sure hope there is a great Mexican restaurant in Raleigh. You seem to be enjoying that type of food.
