Cross Country Challenge

After 39 years working in higher education, 23 of which were at the University of Michigan and the last seven as the Chief Information Officer, last month I retired to pursue new adventures.  I'm launching into retirement by pursuing one of my life long dreams, riding my bike across the US.

I ride with the Ann Arbor club called Power Cycling, coached by Marc Mueller and Louis Cayedito, and I thank them for helping me prepare for the trip. I also thank Scott Guthrie for prepping my bike, packing and shipping it.  And thanks to Brian at Performance Cycle Ann Arbor for all the help, education and support.  I start riding on June 5 from San Francisco, CA and will finish in Portsmouth, NH on July 26.  I will post about my final weeks of preparation and the ride here.
