Cross Country Bicycle Trip!!!

**rocknroller** · 21.03.2012, 21:14

Hey there Be-Maggers, my friend Eric Gieg and I(Iggy) will be leaving for a Cross Country bicycle trip on April first. Our route will be taking us From NJ To CA (Woodward West). We will begin in NJ and head south towards Richmond, VA then head towards Ashville NC and through Atlanta to Florida. Hopefully we will be getting to Florida around the same time the Pow Wow is going on so we can take some time and catch some awesome blading. From Florida we will be heading west going through all the Southern States. We will be shipping our skates out to AZ so we can do some blading while we are there.

Our trip will consist of couch surfing and camping. We would love to stay and/or meet some bladers along the way. If you think you can host us please get in touch with us asap. We would even appreciate a safe place to setup our tents.

God damn that sounds fun. Would love to help you guys out around pow wow times.

That route's kinda far off from Jacksonville. Have fun.

**RollerDorkMofo** · 22.03.2012, 12:27

If you come to EP you'll definitely have a place to crash.

If anyone from ATL is going to The Pow Wow we would love to join you.

We are trying to find a ride there for the weekend.

Iggy is the best dude! He put a whole tour bus of bladers up for a couple of days AND went the extra 50 miles to make us comfortable. Definitely a stand up dude you're going to want to meet!

Safe travels dude!

**tim_adams** · 22.03.2012, 21:29

Damn, I didn't know you were Iggy. Crazy. This trip sounds amazing... have fun and be safe brother.

ever thought about a trailer? or feel like you have the need?
i got to use on on my bianchi for a 200 miler when i was living in breck. things are badass but overkill if you dont need one.

**rocknroller** · 22.03.2012, 23:39

I have but I feel like it's just one more flat to worry about.

**alexthreet** · 22.03.2012, 23:42

i went to vail for the day, it was dumb

**rocknroller** · 23.03.2012, 10:51

Thanks for all the good vibes!

That's because Vail is dumb.

Bob's are decent, consider a chariot though, better distribution of weight with a lot more space, but you lose maneuverability. The worrying about flats is pretty much a non-issue, from what I've heard.
