As summer fades through fall, Dallas cancer survivor Buddy Boren’s thoughts usually begin to drift toward planning another long-distance bicycle ride to raise funds and awareness about the deadly disease.
This year might be different.
On Aug. 22, Mr. Boren completed his fifth such solo ride, this time tracing the path of old Route 66 from Chicago to Santa Monica, Calif. After finishing the approximately 2,500-mile ride, he said he would probably hang up his pedals.
Landall Proctor set out on a borrowed Fondriest bike with a borrowed trailer. He planned on riding 10,000 miles in 120 days. He is visiting his grandparents in Overton, Tx and is recovering some from the 90 to 100 mile days he has been putting in. For me this trip is about 1 1/2 times what I do in a year.
This story is an interesting read at the Longview News-Journal.
