Jonesin for ride… What have I gotten myself into…
August 3rd, 2016 | 
Author: Ever since I was young, I’ve always had a dream or riding my bicycle on a long trip, wether it be a cross country or multiple day ride, I always wanted to try.
So I finally decided to see if the hips could do it. I’m waiting to board a train to head north to Santa Barabara, were I’ll spend the night, then leave Thursday morning to head south to San Diego. I plan on 3 days riding to complete the 251 mile trip. First day will be roughly 75 miles to Tommys house in Malibu, 2day will be about 80ish to my house, third day about another 80 to San Diego.
I have bail points if needed and friends who have offered to just call and they will fetch me, but I want to see if my hips can do it so I can do longer rides in the future.
So here I am, waiting at San Juan Capistrano train station waiting for my train wondering what the heck I’ve done….

I’ll have my in-reach device active on Thursday so you can follow if you wish..

251 miles! I needed a nap after a 10 mile ride last weekend.
Good luck! I have to get out there soon, You live in my favorite part of Cali.
Good luck Jimmy! Also of course if something happens just call me and I’ll pick you and your bike up.
Best wishes to you. It sounds like a great ride. Have fun….Be safe!!
