The 2010 Big Ride Across America is a fundraising bicycle ride leaving Seattle on June 21st and arriving in Washington D.C. on August 7th. I'm participating to raise money for the American Lung Association. A donation of $100 represents just 3 pennies per mile on this 3300 mile journey. A gift of $48 equals a dollar per day for the duration of the ride. You can donate by clicking on the link called Mark's Fundraising Page on the right. Please give what you can. Thank you.

Day 43 and more
I owe Pennslyvania an apology. I'm having lots of fun here. Between poor internet connections, lack of power, busy days, fatigue, and an attitude that I just want to finish (survive) I've not been keeping up the blogsite. I'm sorry about that. I made it to Gettyburg on Wednesday after a really tought 102 mile ride with 6500' of vertical, and in 85 degreee, high humidity heat. I passed the final, but I chose to spend time seeing Gettysburg rather than blog. Effectively, the ride is complete, and we just have two easy rides to make DC. I'll upload my pics later this week. I miss you all and can't wait to see you.
