New York and Back

At the start of my trip to New York I had every intention of making the long haul on bike. I had heard for years that Native Americans as part of there rite of passage into man hood would make long treks from there separate tribes living off the lamb and also many people from Italian, Irish, and Portuguese heritage have had similar customs in their Ancestry. Many people choose to join the Military if they have this us against the world mentality or masculine perception of the world. My choice was to make a trek where I would bike down from Massachusetts to New York with no cell phone and only a nap sack and a single pair of paints and a pair of Sweats. I did have an under armor and a couple jackets as well. The trip down took roughly a week and the trip in total took roughly to weeks. I was in New York a day before the race on September 3rd, 2011. My reward to myself would be running a race for a benefit for world trade center victims on the date of September 4th, 2011.
