Bike tour is now officially underway!
McLean and I bought our tickets to California this morning; here are the officiated deeets:
We'll be in SF 'round Christmas, and will embark on five days of riding the morning of December 28th or 29th. We'll do about a century a day. New Years out on the road? Near Years out on the road!! We'll arrive in LA January 3rd/4th, stay a couple days... rent a car and drive back to the bay. With bikes in tow, of course.
MC and I will be flying back out of SFO on the morning of the 6th. And then, of course, it's officially over.
Wanna join?

Damn........you guys have mapped this out? It is possible?
i too would like to see your route...100 miles a day is no joke. neither is spending new years on the road
It's totally possible! That's a well worn route. But we haven't mapped it out exactly yet.
From approximations and talking to people who've made the ride before, we've figured that we'll do 80-100 miles a day, and it should take five days. There are a TON of places to stay along the way, and if the weather gets too shitty, there'll be enough people to split a cheap hotel room to provide hot showers and a roof overhead.
There's a book called Bycicling the Pacific Coast that can tell you anything you'd ever want to know about riding clear from Canada to Mexico.
You guys should think about it... Chris, it'd be mega-bonding time, and Rob, man, we could meet in the most epic way!
I'll definitely think about it. I just don't want to be the dude to back out at the last minute. You're doing this fixed?
Hell no! I'd have to be TUFF to pull that off! I'm borrowing a road bike from someone in California.
There are still a couple months to think it over, def.
Yeah right think about def, fucking commit, boys. Yagotta train and prepare and think and, Chris, find something geared taborrow. Rob's in, we smeared blood into each other's pinkies and spit on people about it last night at the Macaframe premier. So good.
PS I may have to cut things short- I MIGHT have to be back at work on the 2nd of january. But if it's the case I will figure it out myself and/ or propose we leave a day earlier than planned? I STILL GOTTA ASK MA BOSS.
