We biked from Edmond to Watonga yesterday, which was a great ride to let my knee get its groove back. After tons of Advil and ice, the swelling in my knee went down and I was able to easily complete a 75 mile ride. Today, I was the designated SAG for the ride…which means I […]

Today was our first mapped century. One hundred miles in the Texas summer heat can be the most intimidating thing to wake up to. We could all feel the tension in the morning during breakfast but of course no one really talked about how nervous they were. However today was one of the best century […]

The constable that escorted us into town was so generous that he decided to return the next morning and lead us into the next town, Onalaska! We were very excited to see the words “Welcome to Onalaska”.. because you know Alaska! After the escort we split up into groups and took off onto a very […]

Lake Livingston will forever have a special place in my heart. When I was little my family I camped here every Easter with the Ocana family. There are certain moments when I’m on the bike that you just look up and the beauty of Texas just takes your breath away this happened every mile from […]

Today was another 5:30 a.m. wake up, and I immediately started packing all of my things. Getting ready in the morning is a whole process, which starts with changing into my cycling clothes, packing all my normal clothes and other items into compression sacks, and then rolling up my sleeping pad and sleeping bag. 17 […]

HOOUUUSSTTTONNNN!!! 4- The fact that the Ozarks route passes through Houston was one of the big reasons that attracted me to it. Many of those who I ride for reside in this part of Texas and were treated in the hospitals at the medical center. This ride was has been one of my favorites that […]

After a day of SAG it felt a little weird to get back on the bike. This morning our wake-up crew serenaded us with a guitar. Even though it was 5am in the morning I had a big smile on my face because of this. One of the things I’ve quickly learned is that you […]

*I had no internet when I wrote this journal yesterday. What a day. We woke up at 5:23 a.m. to Reid singing Mr. Brightside by the Killers. Breakfast was served by the Luton’s (bagels, yogurt, muffins, and my favorite, orange juice), and then we loaded the trailers and headed out. We had another police escort […]

Hellloo!So I couldn’t write yesterday or else id probably be incomprehensible.. Yesterday was hard. So hard. 100 miles in 104-108 degrees from Snyder to Lubbock on one highway. I remember thinking, “how can I keep pedaling? We’ve got to get in the vans now.. There’s no way were finishing this” .. But somehow someway we […]
