Bicycle Tour - VA to TX (miles4megan)

On October 18, 2006 I flew out of Austin and joined my bicycle, which had already arrived in Richmond, Virginia. A few days later I embarked on a one month solo bicycle odyssey, starting in Yorktown, Virginia and ending in Texas. My ride was dedicated to Megan Horton, a 14 year old who had recently received a donor heart (you can read about it at http://miles4megan.blogspot.com/). I traveled along back roads in Virginia, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas. Cycling over 1000 miles towing a 60 pound trailer, I got in shape, lost weight, made new friends along the way, and renewed my faith in the character of the American people.
