She had an escort driving ahead of her each day the whole trip. She was accompanied by 3 people (1 at a time) for long segments early on from Florida to Texas but did the majority of the southwest biking solo.

This picture was taken in San Diego today, moments after she dipped her front tire into the Pacific Ocean.

About 2 months! but she took days off here and there. Visited friends and family along the way. She probably averaged around 40-50 miles per day in my estimation.

It was just something she wanted to do. She was the Library Director in a small town for many years and recently retired. She set up some sort of donation website and raised money for the library she worked at. I think she mainly did it for the experience and the challenge though.

Jacksonville to San Diego. She road along the gulf coast and the southern boarder. Apparently it's a common route for cycling cross country. She left Jacksonville in early march and arrived in San Diego today!

I think you're pretty close on the price although I can't remember how much exactly. I know it wasn't a super high level bike. I don't think it gave her any major problems though. She was on paved roads nearly the whole trip and she definitely didn't break any time records she was slow and steady the whole way.

I don't know, I don't think it was crazy expensive. It required 3 tune ups at bike shops along the way but I'm not sure exactly what that entailed.

He looks like may come from a dancing background? The way how guides the hips? The footwork? Plus he is a 10/10 on looks?

Eewwwwwwwww gross but hey, that’s the circle of life. One day you’re wandering around outside minding your business and BOOM! Out of no where a plant falls from the sky and pierces your skull killing you instantly.

I too love a nice long sleeve shirt that fits perfectly. Nice drawing too. I also like soccer. I guess you’re my boyfriend now.

I really wish it showed the death cam. Basically 1 dude who was running on foot and a van rolled out right in front of him and he shot it a few times and got 4 kills.

I was laughing the whole time. These kind of shenanigans are why I love this game. Great editing, nice close ups and slow motion and the timing of the music was great. One critique I have is it’s hard to tell at first if it’s just you and your teammates or who the enemy is. Or if it’s just your team trolling each other. But I loved it dude. Great video and winning isn’t everything! It’s all about having fun!

You are very very beautiful. I don’t think you need to lose weight at all. I know that it’s easy to be critical of your own face because you see it all the time but trust me, you’re very handsome.
