Welcome to my blog. I plan to do occasional posts before I set off and then every
few days on the trip.
On May 12th 2012 I will be dipping the rear wheel of my bike
into the Pacific Ocean
in Los Angeles and heading for the Atlantic in Boston.
I am funding the trip myself, however I am seeking sponsorship for The Multiple Sclerosis
Society. Please consider supporting my sponsorship by clicking on the "Sponsor me " link.
Note all of your donation will be going to the Multiple Sclerosis Society.

I am looking forward to this great challenge and hope you find my blog of interest.
Please enter your email details on the right to receive updates. Thanks

Day 31 into Champaign Illinois

A picture from yesterday whilst waiting for the storm to pass



Today was generally a pleasant 86 miles. The weather was warm (80's) with a slight breeze which assisted our passage on the final part of our ride.

The countryside is getting much greener with trees and bushes. Corn and soya beans being the main crops.

Grain silos still a common sight

Also a common sight is me having a milk shake.




Rolled into Champaign early afternoon, washing in the machine.
Called into bike shop to buy some new gloves, current ones are rotting away.
Need to find some beer?
rest day tomorrow

Location:County Road 1100 E,Champaign,United States
