WHAT AM I DOING?


I must say that this is an adventure. I came to Alaska to ride my bike and I am building a deck. The new adventure begins on June 3. I will ride to Girdwood, Alaska,which is about 36 miles from Anchorage. On June 4 I will ride to Whittier, Alaska, which is about 24 miles from Girdwood. At Whittier I have to wait for Jim Jr. to drive me through the tunnel. There is only one road into Whittier and it goes through a tunnel. No bikes, no walking through the tunnel. In Whittier I will catch the ferry to Bellingham, Washington. I will spend five nights on the ferry between Whittier and Bellingham. From Bellingham I plan to ride my bike to Saint Paul, Minnesota. I will take a route mapped out by Adventure Cycling Association and I will use their maps. On my travels I will update this blog whenever possible. Feel free to follow along and post a comment or email me at silverfox.jim@aol.com

It is Saturday night and my bags are packed or should I say my BOB is packed.  I'm ready to go.  7 AM Sunday.  I have company this time.  Mark, a long time friend and bike enthusiast is also coming.  On our first day we will go from St. Paul to Hastings and then to Red Wing.  We will camp just across the bridge in WI on the Mississippi.  I hope the campgrounds has wifi so I can keep you posted on how the trip is going.  Now for a good night sleep.
