I started this madness ten weeks ago today- August 18th- in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

I’m the blue dot.  In the past 70 days I have traversed two Canadian provinces and 12 states. I am now in Georgia.

Only Florida remains to be crossed, which I will do by traveling from its northern border to the state’s southernmost point that can be reached by road.  That point lies in Key West, and I’ll get there on November 10th- a date I have announced and stuck by from before leaving Maine way back in September.  That took a little planning, a whole lot of pedaling and more than my fair share of good luck.  More on all that, and especially the good luck part, in a future post.

Oh yes, and

It’s right on the border with South Carolina, so I kind of got a twofer today. That, and a big “HOO-WAH” to my hosts last night: the United States Marine Corps.
