UPDATE: Baby it's cold outside

-
I'm kinda dilly dallying around right now because it's cold outside. It's a balmy 61 degrees and that's cold (to me). 

I just updated yesterday's blog post. After reading it this morning, I thought of some things I didn't post and, frankly, I didn't like the post. I guess I was more tired yesterday than I thought I was. 

Anyways, enough lounging around and time to pack up the bike and head out. 105ish miles ahead of me.

How to Read About My Trip - (all the posts in one place)

Well, it's kinda hard to just go to this blog and scroll through all the posts to find a starting point and then to read all the posts.  So, I thought I'd make this post with links to all the posts. Hopefully, it'll be helpful to people that want to read about my journey - including me as I like to go back and reread it too. Enjoy! Pre-ride posts: The trip starts in 3 weeks!

Saturday was the start to this crazy adventure.  It started with me waking up at 5 am.  A full hour before my alarm and after going to bed at midnight.  I stayed in bed until 6 though as I just couldn't fathom getting up so early. Erin and I took the dogs for a walk before I left them for a month.  As we got back to the house, my friend, Bill, arrived.  He didn't bring me that donut he promised me though. :( (Erin and Bill in the driveway as I'm getting ready to leave) (not sure if I look ready to go or what) (Bill and I - we had a similar picture on top of some mountain in Colorado a few years ago) (making sure the inReach is ready to go) (and he's off) The ride went pretty well. About a third of it was just getting out of the DFW.  I took the trail North to the other side of 635 and then Meandering Way up into Plano.  From there it was Ohio to Frisco and Coit out of town.  Being a Saturday morning, I ...
