That’s it folks - it’s done. Gonna take some time to process this one. The trip turned into something much greater and far more demanding than expected.

I love being alone in the desert at night. Made even cooler when you get to expedience history like this. Btw, I was way off the the population of Amboy, CA; the correct answer is…..5 people.

The doctor is in…. Clean feet are imperative for avoiding blisters. Doing the best I can but one on my right foot was so large and deep that I had to break out my @511tactical knife to take care of it. All part of the fun. Roughly 220 miles down and about 110 to go!

The Plan: Move for 20:00 hours a day, covering 45 to 50 miles, and sleep for about 2:45 hours. I will continue this schedule until I finish or drop from exhaustion - there is no in between. The approx 320 mile trip should take just over 7 days. I will be solo and unsupported.

Some days are better than others. Don’t sweat it, it’s all part of the fun. Head down and push through it. You will ALWAYS be glad you did. #earngivelive #cycletouring #cyclelife #cyclistlife #roadcyclist #cyclistlifestyle #endurancetraining #enduranceathlete #monsterenergy

It’s easy to be tough when the sun is out. The question is how do we perform when it’s cold, dark and we are all alone? No one EVER gets better being comfortable. @MonsterEnergy

The first steps of a several hundred mile solo and unsupported training trek across the desert. Trying out some new gear and new ways to approach longer crossings. Only one way to learn and that’s by stepping into the fire. Interested to see how my body holds up.
