the end, for now.

monday night, a close friend died in chicago, and i needed to be at home.

after weighing all of our options, john was a great sport and decided that we should both abandon ship and pick up this tour at a later date, beginning where we have left off.

so: we rode from chicago to montague, michigan, a total of 235 miles over three riding days.

diana drove from evanston to pick us up this morning (tuesday), and we drove back, pointing out various "we were there" landmarks along the way.

we'll fill in some more text and add some photos when we can.

thanks -

jay

Awful news all around. So sorry to hear it.

Terribly sorry to hear about the premature end to your ride. Two friends and I are doing the ride in September and are trying to figure out the best route --> how did you plan yours? See pledgemyride.com for what we're doing.
