This book is a story of how my wife and I met, how cycling played a major role in our developing a relationship and our cycling adventures since we fell in love. We are a vintage couple - I am 77 years old, and my wife is 70, and we are interested in exciting readers enough that they might want to turn to cycle touring as a form of recreation and fitness. Our adventures include a trip across the country from San Francisco to Virginia, a trip down the country from Canada to Mexico, a trip over the Historic Route 66 from Santa Monica to Chicago and many, many shorter trips in this country and several others. In addition to our adventures, the book also contains some how to information to help in planning and executing cycle tours. We have been married eleven years, and this book tracks our cycling lifestyle over that period.
