It is my first time doing a long ride. It is my second time riding to train. The last time I rode, I completed 35 miles. Today, I would more than double that distance. It was an 88-mile challenge with 7 of west Austin’s toughest hills. I woke up at 6am and we started the […]
Day 61 Whitehorse to Haines Junction YT August 1st Miles: 99 Wake up time 730am. It’s odd seeing so many people at once getting ready now. For the past 2 months its only been 20 people and now the population has doubled more than 40. This also means more competition to morning poops and the […]

Day 58 July 29th Rancheria to Teslin YT miles: 88 Blog readers and supporters, if this seems inappropriate, I apologize but these are just the facts and life of a t4k rider. Morning poops. It’s an essential part of our day. And in many ways its what gets us out of our sleeping bags and […]

July 27th Miles: 74 The idea of getting up with close to 9 hours of sleep is a wonderful recharge. I feel so much better with more sleep thanks to the late wakeup times. For breakfast dj made us pancakes cooked with cranberry oats inside it. A new good twist to the pancakes. The morning […]
On the bike, you feel everything. The gust of wind, no matter how strong or fast, the bumps in the road, the rumble of an 18-wheeler passing by, the muscles working in your legs and arms and back, the drops of rain or the splash cars give you as they speed by… you feel it […]
Well, we all made it across the border! Hooray! It’s crazy to think that we’re in Canada…and even crazier to think that we biked here. It’s unbelievable to look at a map and actually visualize how far we have come, but also intimidating to visualize how far we have yet to go. I think Canada […]
