Boston To DC Ride

It all started with losing this guy in April 2014. And the Plymouth (and now)/Boston to DC ride was born.

This year, the logistical and financial burden was high. Rising costs of everything prompted the plank owners of the Boston to DC ride to make the difficult decision to push the ride back to 2024.

So, in honor of our friend Gregg and to keep the spirit of the ride alive... Paul & I rode our bikes from Plymouth to Newport RI on Saturday.

A challenge in itself, the struggle for your girl was R-E-A-L. 🚴 😳

With 2250+ feet of elevation gain 🏔️ and limited "training rides" under my belt, it was no easy task. But we made it and enjoyed some refreshments on the other side!!

Boston to D.C. ride..... Day 7 🚴

Left Annapolis after waiting out the rain for our 38 mile ride to D.C.

A "quick" ride into our Nation's Capital where we toured the monuments on our bikes before heading over to the National Law Enforcement Memorial.

Shower, dinner and off to the Candlelight Vigil to honor those we've lost in the line of duty.

🚴 Boston to D.C. ride ... Day 1. 🚴

We left Newton PD in style with an es**rt from the Newton MA Police Department which made navigating the intersections that much easier.

5 miles in, we had a broken derailleur and had to hit a bike shop back in Newton. While that bike was being fixed, the rest of us continued in with a sweeeeeet tailwind 💨 that allowed us to crush our time to Providence... as in 15-16 mph average speed!! 🤯🤯

It was windy AF, but we crushed Day 1. After we checked in, we hit the hot tub with a few cocktails, off to dinner & then hit the rack early.

Tomorrow we are off to Long Beach New York in what is predicted to be 22-25 mph winds. Our original ferry was canceled, so we are improvising, overcoming & adapting.
