This is the summer of Texas 4000! Texas 4000 is a non-profit student organization from the University of Texas that is dedicated to fighting cancer by sharing hope, knowledge, and charity across North America through a 4,500 mile bicycle ride from Austin, Texas to Anchorage, Alaska. I will be spending 70 days with 45 of my closest friends pedaling through deserts, mountains, cities, and everything in between. We will sleep in schools, homes, campsites, anything that's free. The ride is the eye catcher but the most important part of Texas 4000 is what we do when we are off our bike. As a team, we raise money for cancer research and give programs throughout the ride spreading the latest information in cancer prevention and research. I will be trying to post pictures, videos, daily comments on this blog, but I will also be updating my journal on www.texas4000.org.

Day 39 San Francisco to Tomales

After so much waiting we finally get to cross the Golden Gate Bridge!! This also marks the first day on the beautiful Hwy 1



Everyone was in high spirits after this monumental day, even the confusion and wrong directions that followed couldn't dampen our spirits. Speaking of which, the rest of the day was extremely damp and fog we all agreed it looked like a scene of Sleeping Hollows.
