Most importantly, I apologize to everyone who received the notification that I had started my next trip. The posting was a test by a developer using new functionality, without realizing it would impact the live site.
The original plan was for me to begin my planned Southern Tier ride today - Sunday, September 22nd. Unfortunately, I had a run-in with our picnic table, injuring my left leg in the process. Fortunately, there are no broken or cracked bones, but there is pain, swelling, and bruising in the leg and foot. Walking has been difficult, and pedaling is totally out of the question.
I was disappointed but made the tough decision to give my leg time to heal, so postponed my trip.
Here is my updated plan:
Tuesday, Oct 1 (AM) - Pick up a rental vehicle, and load my trike and other belongings.
(PM) - Leave for San Diego, California
Friday, Oct 4 (AM) - Arrive in San Diego and check into the hotel.
(PM) - Yvonne arrives in San Diego
Sunday, Oct 6 (AM) - Do the ceremonial dipping of my trike's rear wheels in the Pacific Ocean and then begin my second tour across the USA on the Ocean Beach Bike Path with my touring buddy, Orph.
Looking forward to the awesome updates as you embark on this amazing adventure.Wishing you an incredible experience
