Long journeys start with one step

What do you do when your daughter sends a single text with no warning? You say “sure”, and start the planning process. Shannon and I talked about riding across the country when she was little. We enjoyed riding the tandem in the city-to-shore (Philadelphia to Ocean City, NJ) event each year and added the cross country trip to our bucket lists. Of course, life got in the way for over 20 years. Shannon became a nurse and relocated to the west coast where she fit in perfectly with all the free spirits. Robin and I retired and are currently exploring the east coast in Airbnb’s looking for a location to settle down. This seems like the perfect time for all of us to get back together and reconnect for a few months as we ride across America. Thank you Shannon for taking the first step; we look forward to the adventure!
