I arrived in San Diego yesterday morning. I picked up my bike & drove around San Diego for a couple of hours. Then I met up with the team in the afternoon. We're staying at a Jewish Community Center in La Jolla. It's a beautiful facility & the people here have been very kind to us. Spent the 1st night of many to come in my sleeping bag on my Thermarest pad. Still getting used to that, I must say. Today was the first working day for the R4WH team. After some introductions, we began reviewing the lectures we'll be delivering as we travel cross-country.
The team is great & diverse group of people & I think all of us will have no problem getting along. We got our team "kits": our jersey & shorts today.
We did our first "set up" at the Community Center & spoke to a few people there.
Tomorrow, more logistics to cover such as how the support teams will be staffed & how we'll work those days. Then, finally, a group training ride. I can't wait to get out & loosen up for a couple of hours. Our first "real" riding day will be Thursday when we head out to Los Angeles.See you again soon. Thanks for reading!
