The Beers

Alicia and I enjoy many outdoor activities. Alicia has long had a life goal of bicycling across America. It sounded like a great adventure to me. This was an opportune pause in our lives with a recent job loss (May 2009), so with just three weeks of planning and training - we were off.

This trek started May 24th, 2009 from Anacortes, Washington ending 65 days later in Portland, Maine (We had expected 60 days to Bar Harbor, Maine.).

3964 spinning miles!! Biggest day 115 miles. ~~Pete Beer

Staying in Touch

We are leaving this Sunday, May 24th. Starting in Anacortes Washington, we will ceremoniously dip our tires into the waters of Puget Sound and head East.

Today we hurriedly finish packing, turn off services, send the puppy on his journey. We may also catch a showing of Angels and Demons.

There are so many changes in our lives right now. Losing the job puts many other things in jeopardy. We are working with everyone involved to work out the best solution for all parties. Above all, we are Christians first and are looking to maintain our Christian integrity.

We plan to stay in touch using this blog, cell phones, email, and, soon to come, twitter. Subscribe to our blog to stay posted on our journey. We plan to update at least once a day. By the way, we are moderating comments. Feel free to make comments; they will not show up until they have been reviewed.
