The Joys
Bicycling coast to coast with an organized tour company allows our minds to be free. We connect with, delight in, and harmoniously integrate into nature. The crossing transitions our bodies into excellent shape. The experience broadens our minds and ignites our spirits. As the journey awakens all our senses, we experience the utmost vigor and vitality – not only physically, but also mentally and spiritually. We attain an incomparable appreciation for the vastness and variety of this rich nation, which is a large part of why bicycling across it is so special. We learn United States history and vicariously experience the lives of those who made that history. From college students to baby boomers to the seventy-something’s, we are inspired by others, whom we ride with. Sharing the journey heightens and extends the accomplishment.
Our Minds Are Free
As they do all the support work, the tour company makes the crossing a vacation for us. We are removed from having to plan and schedule the day, the week, the next week, and the many weeks after that. We eat, we sleep, and we ride wherever the tour company tells us. It is not a dream, but a true removal from our stress-filled, day-to-day lives; it is a real vacation. These crossings become fifty consecutive days for grown-ups to be young at heart, go out, and play.
