“Bike-u” journal chronicles local rider’s Trans-Am ride

by Phillip Barron

While out filming this weekend I ran into Judy Martell, who this summer completed her Trans-America bike adventure. From Oregon to Colorado, she rode her locally-built recumbent for 31 continuous days to complete the final stage of a journey she began seven years ago. I last mentioned Martell in these pages in an Outspokin’ Cyclist column from 2005. Martell chronicles her Lewis and Clark-ian ride over at crazyguyonabike with a haiku and photo for every day of the ride.

I cross the threshold
that lies between when and now
and I begin to ride.

Congrats Judy!
