Just a fun update
At the beginning of 2010, as my riding became more serious, I decided to map my weekly distances on Google Earth and travel across the country. I started in Ocean City, Maryland (at the water’s edge) and snapped a path each week on the highways that would eventually lead me to Interstate 80 in Ohio and from there, to San Francisco where Interstate 80 begins/ends. Why Interstate 80? I grew up in Iowa and I-80 runs right through the middle of the state.
This morning, as I mapped this week’s miles, I entered San Francisco and even went off the coast for quite some distance. Next stop … Hawaii?
Very cool way to illustrate the distance!
