Raam 2012
To disable ads, please log-in.
Thought I would start a fresh thread for this!
Pedal Wrench and I are on the same team as racers for an 8 person team for Race Across America, and we start on Saturday at noon! I have posted all of my tracking information both formal and informal on this post on my blog:

I always appreciate all of the good vibes/thoughts from the awesome women on this forum!
Thanks!
Kacie

Fabulous! Good riding to you both!

I'll be watching your progress and will try and get to the Mt Airy pit stop, which is very close to me, and I'll shake my cowbell.
I'm following your team on facebook as well. Sending out positive vibes to you and all in this years race.
You too can help me fight cancer, and get a lovely cookbook for your very own! My team's cookbook is for sale Click here to order. Proceeds go to our team's fundraising for the Philly Livestrong Challenge!

Awesome! RAAM goes through our neck of the woods, too. We're not too far from the Maize checkpoint so we'll try to get up there so we can make some noise when you come through.
Have a safe trip, and best of luck to you and the team.

Wow, that looks like fun! Good luck to you and your team, especially when cruising through the NM/CO corridor. We've had some really smoky air due to the fires.
Be safe, have fun, GO FAST!

Wow, didn't realize the two of you were on Team Shepherd. I regularly do rides out of your team mate Mark's bike shop and have heard him talk about his upcoming RAAM adventure. I look forward to following your progress. Have a great ride!

Good luck, Kacie and Pedal Wrench! Safe and fun travels!
