Title First – in pretty much the same role as I am now. I was rooming with Patrick and Jason in Upper Arlington. I’ve been cycling for a few years now. Work was getting a bit frustrating and life just a little boring, so I thought that a vacation was in order. I wanted to do something bold, go far and away. I had never been on a true vacation, plane, helicopter, traveled outside the US – Canada doesn’t count – and I’ve only been at most a few states away. The only safety net I wanted was a country that spoke English. I planned to and went to New Zealand. I met some people, took in what I could of that awesome place NZ. I cycled about 500 miles in a week and a half’s time. O… and I bungee jumped.
