I left Anacortes, WA on June 13, 2021 heading to Key West, FL…on a bicycle.

My route was designed using established routes from Adventure Cycling (a company that does bike tours). I’m pretty sure several people have ridden from Seattle to Key West but I can guarantee very few (probably zero) people have done this exact route.

I started on a route called the Northern Tier with my cousin, Dennis Peterson, accompanying me for the first 500 miles. Dennis was way more qualified for this than me and it was nice to have someone who knew what they were doing get me started.

I took a slight detour on the above section. I headed south at Bismark, ND so I could pedal through my hometown of Bristol, SD.

The end.
