Okay, first post.
We got started over at "SeattleToOtherPortland.blogspot.com," but then we found out someone used this name for their bike trip last year.
So here we are.
As of January 1st, Dave and I have logged between 80-180 miles per week (each) and the arrival of April means we will be stepping it up.
Dave's recovery from shoulder surgery is going excellent, and 3 weeks ago his physical therapist gave him the go ahead to get outside (and off his indoor trainer). Just got off the phone with him and he was riding home from school with weights in his saddlebags to be more "realistic."
My physical therapy for my back is focused on strength training now, to minimize the soreness I'm expecting come June.
Both of our bikes are purchased and feel like cadillacs compared to our light roadbikes. More details and pictures coming soon.

...a bicycle trip...
.
This blog chronicles our ride across North America. We began on June 14th in Anacortes, Washington, and rode roughly 3400 miles to Portland, Maine, with breaks, over 37 days.
My name is Evan (26) and my father is Dave (60). This was his crazy idea.We have chosen to raise funds for an organization called the FHSSA, which has a new website here.
A donation page has been set up for our trip, on the National Hospice Foundation website
You all have helped us raise $2300 so far, so a big thanks.
If you want to know why we chose this fund, see THIS POST HERE.
If you want to be emailed updates, you can use the "Follow" gadget (on the right, below), as I won't be doing the weekly mass emails that some have come to expect from me. On the flipside, I'll avoid updating you on every cornfield we pass.
