Mean Green Machine
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!

Kevin and Theresa are my new heroes! I'm watching all the new pictures come in...keep em coming. This is turning into quite the group ride. You've got more riders with you than we get on some weekend rides. ; )
Hey Kevin, from reading about Steve's diet for the last several weeks, why don't we start a pool at work for how much weight he will gain when he gets back to his desk job before he will be able to re-baseline his eating habits! Put me in for 30 lbs.
