...in the Spring of 1998. I took the train to Vancouver BC and stayed with a friend for a few days then caught the ferry to Vancouver Island and the ride started. Unlike the others I was doing 40 & 50 miles a day as opposed to the 80-100 miles a day the die-hards were doing. I started the first week in May and arrived at the Mexican border in mid-August.
As for looking for bikes... I have friends in the industry. Let me know what you want and I'll see if I can't help make it happen. I usually pay 20% over whatever cost was. See, I worked at cambriabike.com for four years. I'm riding a TST titanium mountain bike. Maybe I'll even consider unloading it... would you be interested?

Holy *_*_*_*_*_* Matt !! That's AWESOME!!! I mean I pride myself for riding everyday rain or shine but that's a whole nuther level of dedication right there..I cannot imagine the ride....What did you ride??
I'm trying to keep any bike I buy in the $400-600 range...I know it's not alot but I want something that if I drop her or become a hood ornament im not staring at $1000+ dollars of twisted metal...
Thank you for the offer !!!
