During Spring 2015, a group of friends and I will be touring the entire east coast from Key West, Florida to Bar Harbor, Maine, approximately 2,500 miles in total, following the Atlantic Coast route created by the Adventure Cycling Association. This will be a self contained fully loaded bike tour which means I'll be carrying around 45 lbs. or so. I'm looking forward to experiencing the east coast like never before. With this blog, I plan to post pictures as we progress using the BlogPress APP on my mobile phone. Let's see how it goes and wish me luck. On a bike tour such as this, our daily challenges and not necessarily in this order, will be our physical condition, food, shelter, traffic, navigation, and weather. The above picture was taken during my Southern Tier crossing of the U.S. in spring of 2008. Bike touring requires a specific mind set and a passion.

35 miles to Ft. Lauderdale

Ft. Lauderdale seems to have topped South Beach as the party place for college students on spring break with packed bars, crowded beaches and street cruisers. In fact it seemed as if everyone in Florida was out on the beaches or in their boats all along our route today, such is Floridian life along the coast on a beautiful Sunday afternoon.
