  • RV Trip Day 7: Mt Rushmore to Cody, WY

    Countdown to cross-country biking: 18 days Good news. The tire shop was able to replace our RV’s damaged tire quickly this morning. Well, technically, they replaced all four rear tires. Not cheap, but we’re on our way with four good tires. We were on the road by 9:30 am and finally pulled into the Cody…

  • RV Trip Day 5: Sioux Falls to Badlands

    Countdown to cross-country biking: 20 days It’s Sunday, a day of rest, but Brian had an 8-hour work meeting. This happens from time to time. A technical meeting that was supposed to be an hour or two somehow becomes a day-long event. So, I took advantage of the morning and found some gravel roads near…

  • RV trip Day 4: Sparta, WI to Sioux Falls, SD

    Countdown to cross-country bike trip: 21 days No riding today. We took advantage of a Saturday morning and slept in a little bit. Got on the road around 8:45 am local time (Central). This was our longest day of driving, 380 miles. Arrived at the KOA in Sioux Falls around 3:30 pm. It’s slow going…

  • RV Trip Day 3: Indiana Dunes State Park to Sparta, WI

    Countdown to cross-country biking: 22 days Another great day in the books. We drove to Sparta, WI and stayed in a Harvest Hosts. I can’t say enough about this place. It was so peaceful and beautiful, and the owners had a good sense of humor! Given our good experience, I’m looking at options for our…

  • RV Trip Day 2: Sandusky Ohio to Indiana Dunes State Park

    RV Trip Day 2: Sandusky Ohio to Indiana Dunes State Park

    Countdown to cross-country biking: 23 days We’re working our way across the country. Today’s drive was mostly I-80/I-90 through Ohio and Indiana…straight, flat and frankly kinda boring. But, we made it to Indiana Dunes State Park (and National Park). I was able to get a quick ride in on the trails, some paved and some…

  • RV Trip Day 1: State College to Sandusky, Ohio

    RV Trip Day 1: State College to Sandusky, Ohio

    Countdown to cross-country biking: 24 days And, we’re off! Brian and I left this morning to drive across the country. Hard to believe this is really happening after three years of planning. In just 24 days my friends and I will start biking from Washington state back to Washington DC. But, first, Brian and I…
