First Post - Bike & Build Blog

November 7, 2007 | 8:18 pm

Welcome! I’ve tried and failed to keep a blog before, but hopefully this one will fare much better. Next summer, I’ll be biking across the country from Boston to Santa Barbara with Bike & Build. The aim of this blog is for me to keep you all updated on my progress in training and fundraising for the trip, and once the trip begins, to keep you updated on my adventures.

I mailed in my application for the trip a few weeks ago, and was enrolled shortly after that. Two of my friends, Devon and Jess, are joining me on this trip, as well as a few other MIT folk. I’m really excited, and think it’ll be an amazing summer.

Today, in my copious free time (really, this is just another excuse for me to punt my work), I went and made a fundraising site. It’s not complete, but most of the content is there.

Look for more updates soon…
