Cycling America Supporting Senior Health is intended to demonstrate that a couple of gals, one in her 60's and one in her 70's, along with a 72 year old support person can do crazy things like cycle across the southern route of the US. We hope this encourages others our age to get out and do things for thier well being.

No special bikes, no large panniers, sleeping bags, tin cups and camp stoves. We will be taking our refurbished 26' Airstream camper. We will also stop at a motel once in awhile for a "good" shower  and sleep.

We plan on riding every mile of the route from San Diego to Florida keeping in mind that noone says you have to ride it all in the same direstion. If it looks like hills are going to be a problem on a given day we may have to drive 50 or 60 miles down the route and ride that section backwards.  

We start on February,16 or so and we will take that time to give an idea of how we are preparing.

Succeed or fail we welcome your comments, encouragement of laughs ....
