Tour de Steem, Training Day #2 Updates, Logo & Shirts!

in #tourdesteem7 years ago (edited)

Hi everyone,

I wanted to make a quick post about all the great news thats been coming my way. I've been offered a bike to use for the trip by a friend. In return Im going to go help my friend and his buddy put a new roof on his trailer. So I've booked Thursday off for that.

This is a huge step forward, as the bike looks like a good fit. Interestingly enough he plans to fly down to his house in San Fran, so I may be able to drop the bike off once I get there. At that point I should have more than enough money raised to buy a cheap cycle if I decide to continue the journey to Utah, Texas and beyond.

Basics:
Bicycle ✔
Panniers
Rain Gear
Portable Usb Charger(s)

It's starting to look very doable!

Today I did two back to back 1 hour cycling videos. Keep in mind this is constant cycling with no downhill coasting, so I feel like it balances out well for training purposes.


**Ignore the backpacking stuff, cus I have a bike!!!

I followed it up with a 45 minute cool down walk in the park. Afterward I came home and told my family down south that I was going to try to get from Cali to Utah to see them. The interesting thing is there's an entire state worth of barren, and hot desert between us. So that is a problem we'll have to solve later haha.

New T-Shirts are out!

I am moving to Salt Lake City, Utah as of tomorrow I will be heading that way. Should be there by Friday if all goes well with my shitty van. I hope like hell you decide to keep going from San Fran to Utah. If you do you better stop by and see me in SLC.

Yeah buddy! I'd love to stop in and say hi. We could do a vlog cameo together!

I like where we are going with this! Excellent job my friend!

Thanks @steemitqa! I priced the shirts super low because I'm hoping to fund this project with steem and steem-based projects not the t-shirts :)

good luck on your ride. i would ride if i didnt keep getting my bike stolen.

great design @thepinkbyhamann

It should be posted to amazon.merch

Oh good idea, we designed it in teespring. I'm going to have to remake it for the colored version anyhow :)

Mike already got one! Great price. I think I'll go for the hoodie,

I can't wait to see them when theyre done! What color did he get?

Glad you move on with this :)
