Mimi here...

Hey folks,
I'm Mimi, at age 54,  the youngster of our group of three (I must keep rubbing that in to the guys...)

I can't say that riding across the USA on my bike was on my bucket list, but between Fred and Jim's long-standing enthusiasm for the adventure, I am psyched, too. I have the feeling that I'll be the least prepared physically, as I am working a lot in order to save money to make up for not working for 3 months.. So far, I've only ridden 15 fairly flat miles fully loaded! And less than 5 weeks till the big day...June 16th, which is also Fred's 63rd birthday.
