T minus 5 days

Our ride is set to begin this weekend. Thomas and I will be riding from Milwaukee to Chicago by bicycle and trailer. Two guys making a journey to support World Bicycle Relief. It's going to take us two days, and when all is said and done we will have traveled close to 100 miles. No one said this is going to be easy, but I am sure it will be quite a fun adventure. Stay tuned, I will be adding some pictures of our gear next.
