Dharma Bummin'

So, it officially begins. Well, sort of. I crammed all my belongings and headed to D.C. today. Forgot a couple things here and there, but not in terrible shape. Tomorrow, I'm catching a ride with Bennett to Nags Head, North Carolina where we'll meet the rest of the Bike & Builders and start our biking from. Friday and Saturday are our orientation days and Sunday is our official first day =]. We start off with pretty low mileage, 66, and then it'll go up to 124 (piece of cake lol). It's pretty awesome, I've always wanted to do a road trip across America. I just never imagined it being on a bike lol. Thanks to all those who made it possible =]. Here's to being a Dharma Bum!
