It just looks like a 2012 RAAM for me is out of reach. Mostly on the financial side. To do it right would take at least $25,000 for the event, and realistically probably quitting my job to be able to have the time to adequately train. I'm just not sure I'm ready to commit that much to a bike ride at this time. With RAAM, anything less than 100% commitment will leave you hanging short.
I am thinking about the possibility of competing in The Race Across the West in 2012. It starts in Oceanside, CA at the same time with RAAM and follows the same course. It just ends a mere 860 miles down the road in Durango, CO instead of going all the way across the country.
RAW is probably a much more realistic goal.
Stay tuned
