The Journey Begins

Whats up everyone..it's day 6 of my cross country adventure with Bike and Build and let me say it is amazing. Sorry that I didn't post sooner but Internet access isn't always available or I just don't get time(there's almost always something to do). So I'm just gonna give a quick run down of the last 6 days.
So last Sunday I met my team. 32 crazies just like me from 18 different states. Sunday and Monday were orientation(you know getting to know everyone and goin over rules, safety policies and what not. Tuesday we had our first build day right there in Portsmouth, NH. And then Wednesday finally came and the excitement mounted. It was time for the wheel dip. We all rode to the beach and walked into the freezing water of the Atlantic and dipped out rear tires in, took a couple group photos, thanks those who came to see us off and then we saddled up and headed for Concord, NH 60 miles away. We left Concord Thursday morning and rode off towards New London, NH. From there we headed to Lebanon, NH(which is where I am as we speak) and today was another build day. Unfortunately not all of us were needed for the build so some of us stayed at the church and did some clean up and washed the van(which btw is called Elvis). The views while riding have been amazing. Ive hit a new top speed record of 53.7 mph(booyah!!). Yesterday we stopped at a lake while riding and jumped in to cool off for a bit before riding into town. I really wish I had more time to describe so more of my team, the rides and how awesome our host have been to us but my session is almost up(I'm on a computer at the local library and we only get 30min). Also I do have picture to post but I couldn't link my camera up to this computer, but don't worry they will be up as soon asap. Well I guess that wraps it up for now. Stay tuned for more to come. Especially the pics!
