Here we go!
It was so much fun the last time I had a blog ( thanks to Cindy). Many of you read, joined in, commented and commented on comments, wrote haiku's, and I love you's, cheered me on and cheered me on again. Cheered each other on. And as corny as it might sound, I think we all dreamed together. Seperate dreams, similar dreams, shared dreams and secret dreams... but your dreams spurred me on, sometimes catapulted me to the next adventure. I hope mine did that for you. So lets do it again!
Please join Sara and I in our next big adventure. ( make sure to see the video clip on the blog) We begin writing the blog now because we want you involved in our preparation and we want to carry you with us as we go. How? First we want your music. Please post to the blog your top ten or twenty picks. Tell us a story associated with a song or two so we can think or laugh about it as we pedal. We will need help to focus our minds on something other than our nether regions.
And so the journey begins!
Come and follow Tracy Burge as she sets out to conquer the 2700 mile "Tour Divide" mountain bike race. That's 2,745 miles of mountain biking adventure on single track, dirt roads, gravel roads and some pavement following the continental divide from Canada to Mexico. All in a month's time or less. That's 2700 miles of pure adventure.
Please consider a donation to conservationist organizations
Part of Tracy's goal with this race is to bring awareness and support for the following conservationist organizations. In support of Tracy and this cause please consider a donation to these organizations. You will find a "Moots miles" donation button on their web sites:
