70 DAYS TO GO
By far, the most tedious and time consuming thing I have to do for this trip is plan the route. I got amazing help from the Houston PD Bike Relay Team. They did a ride last year from Houston to NYC. Way to go, to our friends in Blue!!! Their President shared their route with me. I am sure I will have to do some modifications, as I will not have the Police escorts for safety, but it is a big help. The intresting part is reading them backwards to plot it on my maps. I do like the the web site they use. "Ride with GPS" Wouldn't you know something else for me to think about to keep me up at night.
I also have maps coming from Adventure Cycling and of course Google maps does their very own bicycle route.
I have contacted each state and requested their tourism maps and information, in hopes that the maps would be more detailed. So far they have been of little help. I am still missing maps for Alabama and Louisianna.
I have marked the maps I have with VFW/Auxiliary Posts along the way. I am hoping to get support from my Auxiliary Sister's and Brother's allong the way. I want to know where they are as I plan.
For now I have to take a break. It is time for me to hit the gym or I will want to put it off... Cause Baby it's cold out side!!!

Here is my map room. I didn't have enough table space.
