The Story of the Bike Trip

On April 9th I will be embarking on a 70 day journey that will take me from the east coast to the west coast on my bicycle. I am planning to use this website to keep my personal journal and a way for those who are interested to keep up with my adventures.

While no one plans to ride the entire 4,321 miles with me, there are several people who may join me from time to time. In alignment with my life mission statement: "to travel the world and empower people with visual impairments" I have created a goal. In each state I would like to ride with one blind person for at least one day.

The route I am taking is a northern route from Bar Harbor, Maine to Anacortes Washington.

If anyone is interested in hosting me or joining me for any portion of the trip please contact me, brookyates@gmail.com
