Hey Tom, very best wishes as you head out! I’m not sure of the etiquette — I guess saying “break a leg” would be too close to the bone. I’m dedicating my current wrecked ankle to your success on this trip, I’m with you in spirit. David S.
Thanks, Gerry. The bike I was hoping to get didn't materialize but I have a nice hybrid touring bike, which I got a couple of years back. I'm riding 50mm gravel tires for the gravel road so hope it will be ok.

Thanks, David. At the airport now. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
The storm before the calm. Hopefully. Bon vol and a good beginning on the gravel . . .

I remember reading about the “chunky” nature of that road. Sounds like you are well equipped, despite these pregame equipment woes.
I am praying that is all that will send your HR into Zone 6 Tom. Have a great trip.
Thanks for your comments. So nice of you to respond. Great boost to the morale.
Hagit, thanks so much for the well wishes. I made it to the airport! Line ups are crazy but I got through security. Have some great rides this summer.
