I am in Blythe, California, a tiny town by the border of Arizona. The ride yesterday was 89 miles and it was my first day of driving the SAG - support and gear. I was in the car from 8 am until 5 pm. I enjoyed seeing everybody go by, offering water, snacks and encouragement. It was interesting seeing the ride from another point of view. I picked up several women who were too tired to ride further and ferried them in, or sometimes just down the road a few miles.
Getting the bikes on the car wasn't too difficult but everybody had an opinion so I tried to listen to everybodies opinion and still get it done.
It was rewarding - but I would have rather been riding!

Doesn't sound nearly so difficult as you had expected. Perhaps an iPod for music in the car would have been nice though. -Gar
Hi Phyllis -
You have no idea who I am however I've started to follow your blog and journey as you are living out a life time dream of mine. Your comments about BWW lead me to believe you are from MA as am I. Gotta cheer on the home state girl! That and I suffer from the big feet (size 11) thing too. Enjoy the blogs, thanks for sharing with all of us would-be adventures. Ride Strong, body and spirit.

How cool that people you don't know are reading your news!! I'm off to Rwanda tomorrow (finally!) and wanted to drop a line.
Even the name SAG, leaves something to be desired... ha! It doesn't sound too awful and a fair price to pay for what you're getting in return.
Anyway, keep up the good work and I'll keep reading!
