FletchRide rolls south again.

After a relaxing few days in San Francisco, I am about to hop on the bike again for a four to five day ride to LA, then a couple more days to San Diego.  These last few days in San Francisco have helped to recharge my very weary body and lift my sagging spirit.  I hope the positive effects of these days will carry over to my legs during the remainder of the ride.

I also wish to thank you all for the wonderful encouragement my last entry inspired.  The generosity of the human spirit continues to amaze me.  I wonder if I would even have the strength to continute without these positive messages from near and afar.  Thank you.

Lastly, let me say I will try and write more messages these next few days, and post pictures from my journey along the coast.  Much of the journey was marred by such exhaustion and discomfort that the pictures will suffice, but I’ll add my 2 cents where helpful.  One way or another, the documentation of this adventure will be complete.

So goodbye, San Francisco.  I hardly got to know you but enjoyed my time thoroughly.  Keep passing the word on FletchRide and open the donation pool during these last 2 weeks.  Let’s make the August finish the highest grossing month  during the most challenging portion of the ride.

Thank you all.
