3 MONTHS OUT

So here I am sitting in the Barnes and Noble in Beechwood, Ohio. I finished another paper for Grad School today, took a quiz, drank 2 French Presses, read a few mags, and have been plowing through a great 700 page book called "Healing with Whole Foods." Amazing how I have learned things backwards. I start riding a bike 3 years ago with Pete Gladden and Jared Durioux. Pete is a local cycling legend and all around bad ass and coaches over 50 athletes. Jared is well....Jared. Smooth with the Ladies. Solid on the bike. Dresses to the 9's and has a well defined jaw muscle from attending On&On&On a 12 Step Group for people who love to talk...Busting your chops Dude I know. So I learn to ride a bike with these guys. Then Pete teaches me how to workout at the gym the right way and not like so gung ho gym chachi. Sports Specific Exercise is the key. AND Pete and I ride 6000 miles across Canada pulling Bob Trailers filled with gear behind our mountain bikes. Last years trip got me thinking about going the rest of the way around the world after all I already went 25% of the earths circumference so why not dream a little. Then a few months ago I learned all about Nutrition from my room mate Davin who was basically raised organically by his parents on a farm and eats healthier than anybody I have ever met. I converted to Vegetarianism and thats that. SOOOO I am hoping that all the skills I have learned the past 3 years will serve as a foundation for me making it around the world on my bike. We shall see...
