More Training and Behind-the-Scenes Preparations

Our cycling team has shared a second weekend of training. We pedaled together 60+ miles around Champaign, Illinois, on a Saturday and Sunday in mid-October.  Now, we are training individually through November and December.  Cycling and training in November and December is a challenge because of short days and cold weather.  But we use trainers inside when the weather won't cooperate.  We want to be ready to ride with a good pace and meet the hills we'll face as we ride near the Cambodian border in Vietnam.

We're also doing the behind-the-scenes preparations for our journey: getting Visas, shots, equipment, supplies.  We're also raising awareness and funds among friends as we prepare for this 600-mile ride.  Hope you will follow our journey!
