The enormity of what I've signed up for is beginning to sink in....48 days, 12 states, 3,300 miles, in all types of weather (and this year Mother Nature has demonstrated how unpredictable she can be!) all with the support of many people - friends, family, students, and others to numerous to list. As I reflect on this summer's event, excitement tinged with more than a bit of nervous apprehension are the overwhelming feelings that hit me. I don't want to disappoint anyone who has demonstrated faith in my involvement in ALAW's Big Ride.
My bicycle has been packed and shipped, I'm practicing setting up my new tent, and my to-do list is getting smaller.

Jim, I am jealous but am looking forward to reading, hearing and seeing pictures of this great adventure. Although Rt. 90 will be off the path I will be driving, I will be thinking of you Monday and looking for any interviews on tv. Have fun and stay safe -- to all of you.
