Mike Across America

I finished 2009 with 10, 636 miles of biking. 8,724 on the road and 1,910 miles on my indoor trainer.  I’ll continue with as many indoor sessions as I can tolerate until the temperature and road conditions allow me to get back outside. I’m planning to increase the length of the indoor rides through the spring. On Jan. 16, Feb. 13 and Mar. 13 I’m going  to do a 6 hour ride at Spoke-N-Sport. Chad Pickard and the staff there are willing to set up an area for myself and two other riders to do these rides. Anyone who is interested can sign on to participate in these indoor sessions with me as a way to draw attention to the 2010 RAAM and the fundraising I’m trying to do. Plus I can really use the company during these long sessions to help keep me motivated. Doing long indoor sessions is tough and having people to share the experience with will help me a lot. “Misery loves company”!! Click sponsors – then click  Spoke-N-Sport and under rides/events is the “bike with Mike” link.  I hope to see you at one of the rides. If you don’t want to ride  – just stop by to lend your support and encouragement. We started 2010 right with the Spoke-N-Sport New Years Day ride. The temp. was 0 but 100+ riders showed up to compete the 12 miles ride. I hope you also start 2010 well.
