  • In April of 2022 I rode all 2,503 miles of Historic Route 66 to raise awareness and donations for RADshare.org. RADshare is a Non-Profit Organization that donates free helmets and reliable bicycles to kids. Their goal is to promote fun, independence and get kids outside on bikes! Thanks for the support and I'll see you soon!
    Here's links to everything mentioned in the video and a little more. Please consider making a donation of any size to the GOFUNDME and let's keep the momentum going. Thanks again.

    Great trip! I wish I would have seen this while you were riding. I would have cheered you on while you rode through Sapulpa, OK. I loved the pictures from Sapulpa. Thanks for sharing your trip!

      I remember that part pretty vividly. I was stoked my Dad rode with me that day and that we stopped on that bridge. There were a ton of little turtles sunning themselves under it.

    Are there mostly no cars on this route? Any dangerous traffic parts?

    • @pedal66
      @pedal66  Před rokem +1

      Hi Anthony! It’s mixed. Plenty of road with zero traffic, some bike paths, and a few stretches where you’re on the interstate, which I didn’t love. Here’s a link to my route. Thanks for checking it out. www.followmychallenge.com/live/pedalroute66/?40.657882,-100.290349,2.78

    Loaded up the bike onto the Lexus then off to the journey wearing Rapha kit on a completely un-loaded bike. Sooo inspiring to "everyday people".🙄

    • @pedal66
      @pedal66  Před rokem +2

      😂 - Well, I did take 5 unpaid weeks from work to do this ride and raised $13,000 to buy bike helmets for under resourced kids. 2500 miles in 26 days, yeah, I think that’s something. Thanks for watching

      Also, that was a big gap between Oatman and LA... No footage from the Mojave desert. Too hot to ride?
