Back in School

I was invited by Drew and Abby's school to talk a little about my ride across America. The presentation took place in the gym and was given to the 3rd and 4th graders first and then the kindergarteners thru 2nd graders.

Lots of great questions and interest about the ride. Here are some of the questions:

Why are you doing this?
Are you going to raise money?
Where are you starting?
How long will it take?
How far is it?
How many miles will you ride each day?
Where will you sleep?
What will you eat?
Won't it cost a lot of money?
What's that bump in the route?
Where will you go to the bathroom?
What's in your bag?
Tell me about your bike?
What training did you do?
What if you run into a tornado?
What if you're chased by a grizzly bear?
Why are you going east to west against the wind?

What a fun way to think about the ride and get some inspiration from kids who may start dreaming about their own big adventure.
