Cycle For A Cause - Trip Details

Garmin Connect - Activity Details for Cycle for a cause Lincoln City - San Diego

I stopped uploading the details of the trip because once you upload the activity, it deletes your previous ride stats and I wanted the whole trip from top to bottom to be documented as a whole. Unfortunately the Garmin ran out of batteries on a couple of occasions and one day it was completely dead. Anyway here it is from Lincoln City down to San Diego. One of the most fascinating stats is the calories we burned in the 18 days it took to ride this section. Breaking it down, we burned an average of approximately 4,500 calories per day and that's probably a little low. The average human ingests about 2,000 calories per day.

Day's 3 - 5

The ride has been beautiful, sweaty, grueling, challenging, peaceful, intense, joyful and spandex ridden. I've worn more spandex for more amount of time consecutively then any other time in my life and everyday will elongate that record. I think Max is going to live in his spandex after all is said and done. He tends to stay in his longer then everyone else when we are done riding for the day. i wouldn't be surprised if he tries to bring it to freesking.

We have been cruising pretty good the last couple of days, pounding out 70 mile days pretty consistently and are right on schedule. My girlfriend and Captain of the support vehicle, Angeli has been especially helpful making this all happen. She's bent over backwards and sideways to meet us in the right spots, cooks us wonderful breakfast and dinners, go shopping etc. yeah she's killing it.

Anyway, I've gotta get on the road. I'll uplaod some photos next time and share with all of you how amazing this trip has been thus far!
