We're off!

We've been dreaming about this trip all summer - an adventure by bicycle through the US, Mexico, Chile, Argentina and Bolivia. And, although the 'plan' (if you can even call it that) has changed a million times, the goal is the same: to ride our bikes through 5 countries in order to experience them at a pace that will let us learn as much as possible about the cultures and landscapes we're visiting as well as about ourselves.

So, here's to sore butts, sunburns, cervezas and sunsets over the pacific - let the journey begin!

We'll each be posting our own stories on this site over the next 5-6 months. Check in often to keep up to date on our adventures. We'll also upload our favorite pictures as we go - see the sidebar for the link to our picture site, as well as our intended route maps.
