I’m an aspiring triathlete – in so much that I enjoy it, and would like to be better at it. Generally my bike leg is strongest, then my run, then my swim. I’m currently sticking with the shorter distance races (sprint to olympic ~2 1/2 hours or shorter). I’m just sticking to relatively low key local races and can generally place in the top 5 in my age group. 2nd place in my AG is my best so far.
I just like to ride my bike. And I like to travel. So traveling by bike, seemed like a logical step. Not sure that 3000+ miles is a good way to get into bike touring, but you have to start somewhere.
I’m married – to a wonderful and supportive wife who puts up with me doing silly things – and we have 2 great children.
In preparation of this endeavor, here’s a summary of my bike training…
And my total training…
