A Day of First’s Day 5
Check out my ride on RidewithGPS. Today was a big day for me. Scott needed to get home so in the morning he drove me on the other side of Jacksonville saving me 10 miles and riding in morning hour traffic. Have to say I was a bit nervous about the thought of not having him…

A Gift Day 4
This morning I was a little bit demotivated because I had to have Scott drive me about 21 miles back to the place where he picked me up last night. I sometimes think it is harder for me to see the route in a city before actually doing it because it leaves me with a hole…

Night Rider Day 3
Interesting day today. I woke up fully intending to ride over 60 miles today, however I managed to crank out a big 15 miles through Ocracoke and another 15 miles through the Cedar Island Wildlife Reserve! Wow! Yay me. Note to self, on days you take a ferry ride be sure to check the schedule…

Warmup Days One and Two
Two days of riding under my belt… Or my butt I should say. I haven’t pushed myself at all yet by spending all day on the bike because I have wanted to spend time enjoying this area with my hubster. It’s really been fun so far despite my absent-mindedness in leaving my purse in a…

Junk in My Trunk
Today is all about going over my packing list and printing off my maps. As Scott has kindly pointed out, I have everything but the kitchen sink strapped onto my bike. I have added a bike trunk instead of huffing it out with a backpack on my back for 600 miles. Because I…

Charleston, How I Fear You…
Kaitie and I got to see Derek this past Labor Day weekend in Charleston… God, I miss and love that guy and am so thankful he is mine! I took down some shoes that we had resoled and also his jeep seat covers that finally came in after 8 weeks of waiting. Have to admit…

Ride with GPS
I took a pic of this beautiful animal as I was testing out the Ride with GPS app I bought for my phone. Just wanted to see how easy it is to add iPhone photos to it. While taking the photo I was looking at this wire between the fence. We all know what those are….
